    What's the best field guide for Ecuador?

    Get the book… hopefully a true pocketable field guide. If not, there are some I could rec.

    What's the best field guide for Ecuador?

    I have not seen Helm....how does it compare to Ridgely's Birds of Ecuador ..... Not really a field guide to take into the field though... I know I have seen various paper guides that have put out by various groups in Ecuador in the past. I have them packed up now and ready to move to another...
