Easy Identification with this guide
I went to Kenya on safari last year and what a great addition this guide was. Highlights all the major bird species you might see in East Africa. It's laminated so easy to clean and small enough to tuck into my camera bag.

Excellent Pocket Guide
I found this Pocket Guide, along with the East Africa Wildlife, to be very informative. I studied these guides prior to my 11 day safari through Kenya, and referred to then at each days end, as well. I would highly recommend both of these East Africa Pocket Guides.

Always With Me On Safari
When you have no internet in the bush and can't use Merlin, this guide names all the birds you'll see.

Took on my safari.
Colors were great but I didn’t find ANY of the birds. Guess it’s my fault.

Clear images, easy to use.
I used this as a handy guide during a recent safari in Tanzania. This does not replace a detailed guidebook, but was a nice, lightweight, waterproof reference for many of the birds we saw.

Easy to pack-Useful for identifying common birds of Tanzania
I took this pocket guide with me for our trip to Tanzania. I also bought the Birds of East Africa guide but being that we were limited to 33 pounds due to bush plane restrictions, I was unable to pack it as the book was very large and heavy. That’s where the pocket guide came in handy. I put it in my day pack and used it to identify almost all of the common birds. Luckily our first guide was bird knowledgeable so he could identify the less common birds. I wrote the names down and when we came home I marked the birds we saw in the big book. Before we left Tanzania, I gave the pocket guide to our second guide who wasn’t quite as bird knowledgeable as our first one.

This is an awesome guide for East African Bird Id's
I took this on a safari to Zambia. It was small and light enough to not have to worry about the extra weight of a book. I have used it while going through my photos to help ID once home as well.

Birding guide
Good and handy for travellers. Not too much detail though but definitely helps during safaris. But too costly
