Reviews
This is a beautifully illustrated and superbly detailed field guide. A testament to the late Frank Todd?s inherent love of wildfowl. This book contains helpful images of all North American species from a range of angles and, uniquely, performing different types of behaviour. As a behavioural ecologist, it is great to see the range and diversity of wildfowl behaviours included in such a guide. This added information on ?what ducks do? is really useful to help identify species in the field, and it also provides a reference point for those keeping wildfowl in aviculture. The text is comprehensive but concise, and focuses on the most salient points for each group and each species included. This book is clearly a real labour of love and is useful to the amateur birdwatcher and the expert wildfowl specialist alike. -- Dr. Paul Rose, Univ of Exeter

Synopsis
This book is a richly detailed photographic guide to the Ducks, Geese, and Swans of North America, including the Hawaiian Islands, Greenland, Mexico and the U.S. Territories in the Pacific Ocean. The photographs, mostly by the author, were selected to highlight plumage phases, age classes and variation and behavioral postures. Brief text describes the different categories of waterfowl and brief bullet points highlight important identification features. Range maps and population estimates are noted in the text and some details of morphology are also provided in an Appendix.

    This hardback book is of the highest quality, has a fine appearance , arrived in perfect condition, and is an excellent value. On what I was not asked about this time, communicating with the seller would have required using email outside of the eBay system, because they do not accept eBay messages, the book was well packed in a purpose-designed cardboard box, the shipping was faster than I expected for the bound media rate, and the book was exactly as described and pictured.
