Hello again: I know that you good folks have more to do than to respond to questionnaires, but I promise that this will be my last--at least for a while. For use in my program at the Warner Park Nature Center, I would like to know what other books that you consider indispensable in your birding activities, e.g., handbooks, companions, reference works, guides that go beyond field guides, etc. A few examples among those that I own would be Kaufman's Lives of North American Birds, the Sibley Guide to Bird Life and Behavior, Erlich's Birder's Handbook, et al. Two other books that I return to often are Robinson's Annotated Checklist of the Birds of Tennessee and Nicholson's Atlas of the Breeding Birds of Tennessee. Now, over to you. How about 3-5 books that you could not do without? Commentary on the books is welcome but certainly not demanded. Thanks to all of you who have responded to my questions about field guides.
