[TN-Bird] Re: Gull book being recalled

This will be a great book once they get the problems ironed out. It's a
shame after several postponements, it wasn't right when published. The
text in particular is extremely detailed, and the photos are stunning, a
nice companion to Grant's classic. (I ordered mine the day before word
started popping up about the problems.)

Good birding!!
