Review title: Frustration in the Field....
Product review: Does not merit "thru binoculars" status in my experience. A real frustration in the field - attempts to make it "work" as a true field guide only had me reaching for the aspirin at days end. The species descriptions are obviously written with a specimen, countless images, and hours of experience in hand (Note no binoculars in aforementioned). One is provided with similar species to consider, yet the key comparitive marks again read like a lab description. I am challenged to find much that is helpful to a reasonably competent fieldperson who has no problem IDing a respectable number of birds, butterflies, flowers etc he comes across. Better than nothing, but not by much.For California, Manolis' excellent book is highly recommended, AND , it includes damselflies !
