What is a "field guide"?
A field guide is a reference book or manual used to help identify and understand objects, plants, animals, or other subjects in their natural environment. It often includes detailed descriptions, illustrations, or photographs, and information on key characteristics that distinguish different species or items. Field guides are commonly used by enthusiasts, researchers, and professionals in activities such as birdwatching, hiking, or botany to aid in the observation and identification of various elements encountered in the field.
