This book may be of interest:

'National Audubon Society Birder's Handbook' by Stephan W. Kress
Dorling Kindersley Limited, London. 2000, 163 pages with numerous color 
photos
cloth, $25.00

This volume provides information that will be of value to most birders. 
Chapters include: birding techniques, binoculars and scopes, observing 
birds, photographing and recording birds, bird families of North America, 
and birding hotspots. Appendices include information about birding ethics, 
additional sources of information ranging form the library to the internet, 
sources for birding supplies, educational and research programs and the 
National Audubon Society Mission Statement. Although this volume may not 
appeal to some ornithologists, it should be of great value in the library 
of anyone who teaches about birds or is in regular contact with the general 
public and may need a general book to recommend for someone to learn more 
about bird watching and birds in general. Well worth the price.
