This laminated fold-out guide helps to overcome these limitations. It includes a simple identification key, bird silhouettes, brief species notes and artwork. The illustrations include both standing birds and birds in-flight. Bill length, body size and bill curvature are useful to quickly narrow down the species options. There is also help with tricky species pairs, such as the godwits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is ideal for ‘real world’ wader watching where the weather may be a challenge and views of birds distant. Under such conditions colour is of limited use. The identification principles used throughout the guide have been field tested over many years utilising a wide range of volunteer users. The authors and illustrator are all experienced birders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is also free support to accompany this WildID fold-out guide. Two additional resources, Identikit and Quizlet provide the user with an opportunity to further develop their skills. Identikit is a digital, multi-access identification key that can be used alongside the WildID guide. Quizlet is an online flashcard learning resource, perfect for practising identification before heading outdoors. All three products form an integrated suite of wader resources.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wilderness Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58062594310526,"sku":"9781908819895","price":4.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/4096\/7550\/files\/WadersWildIDguide.jpg?v=1789845347","url":"https:\/\/wildernessbooks.co.uk\/products\/waders-of-britain-an-ireland-wildid-guide-op183","provider":"Wilderness Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
