I am still tired from the long drive, but it was great to play with the very best toys for birders, to be able to share experiences and to ask the factory staff all sorts of silly questions. The next day we had an outdoor workshop and a chance to test the toys. impressive for Central Europe. impressive for Central Europe.
It’s a book that counterpoints and combines facts and personal experiences, science-based and eloquent writing styles, textual description and visual information, a history of abundance and an uncertain future. There are also introductions to a couple of related species within the family sections–Golden-Plovers and Willets.
Its founder, Chris Vlachos, has extensive experience and background in wildlife photography, starting his career more than 20 years ago. He holds the first place in the Greek Birdwatching Club 300, he organizes seminars and workshops both in the field and in venues and has been professionally engaging with field guiding since 1998.
GISS—general impression, size, shape—is intuitive, the result of an unconscious cognitive process derived from experience in the field. Bird families that resemble each other are combined into one chapter, for example “Owls, Nightjars, and Nighthawks,” and are then treated separately within the chapter.
The chapter on “Capturing Bird Behavior” (my favorite) gives detailed examples of behavior cues and sound cues to look and listen for in anticipation of interesting preening, courtship, and family behavior. And, looking at the question of cost from a different angle, you could say that this is a very cheap professional photography workshop.
Written by birders, it underlies a wealth of facts, trends, and events with a consciousness that the more knowledgeable we are about good bird feeding practices, based on history and experience, the more successful bird feeding will be at bringing people to birds and the more people will advocate for effective conservation policies and laws.
You'll get hands-on experience with new tools and technologies, and the event itself is chock-full of inspiring keynotes on a variety of topics – from accessibility to diversity. If you have time to experience the city, try Red Farm; it has some of the best dim sum in this part of the city, and it’s right near the conference venue.

With nine years of experience using it and birding with beginning birders, I would like to update that opinion. And, I’m happy to say that the guide is as visually exciting and fun to use as it sounded in the workshop. And, I hope that we never have to experience a world without warblers. This is a guide for all birders.
The videos and talks have wet our appetites for a book that promises to be visually exciting and fun to use, designed by birders who have used their own experiences in the field to determine what warbler seekers really need.
