The Birds of Ireland: A Field Guide is a superb little photographic guide that is perfectly pitched between the basic "Birds in your Garden" guide and the all-singing-all-dancing field guides like the outstanding "Collins Field Guide".
For anyone looking to expand their bird ID skills to the next level in Ireland, or birders travelling to Ireland who are unfamiliar with the birds they're likely to find here, The Birds of Ireland is perhaps the ideal guide.
While the Collins Guide will remain my go-to "Birding Bible" -- I find myself grabbing The Birds of Ireland time and time again... it really is an excellent little book.
You can read a full length review of The Birds of Ireland on the Ireland's Wildlife website.
