Birding in Ohio, Second Edition

Tom Thomson has extensive knowledge about birding in Ohio and has led many briding trips in the Buckeye state. I have attended trips with Tom. His knowledged has been expertly shared in this reference. These comments are not gratuitous, they are sincere.

I've owned this book for a number of years, and have found it really helpful for finding prime birding locations in Ohio. It could stand a little updating, & the maps are not very useful, but the detailed directions of how to get to a location are really useful, when coupled with a DeLorme map for the state. Thomson's division of the state is also rather odd. There are locations that seem to be arbitrarily grouped into a geographic region that it doesn't seem appropriate to be in.Overall, it is very useful if you're going to be doing birding in the state and are either a new Ohio birder, or coming from out-of-state to do some birding.
