No other reviewer, and there have been many reviews, has said there are any mistakes in this guide. This guide had been thoroughly gone over by top North American experts, such as Marshall Iliff and Paul Lehman, BEFORE it was published. This is a North American field guide and the birds are in arranged in phylogenetic order as determined by the American Ornothologists's Union Checklist Committee as of the writing of the guide, as is clearly stated in the introduction, so there is no error here, regarding thrushes. As to gull topography, we clearly have gull photos labeled as to gull topography in the introductory pages on pages xx and xxl. This guide contains more clear identification photos, over 3,400 and more correct and extensive identification text than any other North American photographic field guide.
