It is too bad the information isn't organized in the same way classic bird books are, with species rather than simple alpha. If you Re used to using bird books, the organizational system may frustrate you. It did my husband and me. We are very accustomed to the Petersen field guides. Sea (5 stars) Top quality app Fantastic app (5 stars) It could not be better.
