New Field Guide Please
Sorry if readers thought that the title was to introduce a new field guide, more over, its a request for one. Having been glued to the ID analysis on this forum it strikes me that the information volunteered is priceless and would be better served if captured in a field guide. I use Collins guide (Tolman & Lewington) which I've found to be brilliant but I'm not ashamed to confess that the information given by Guy Padfield is quickly jotted down and added to my field notes. So I suppose the question is, when are you going to produce a comparitive field guide Guy so that I can stop defacing my Collins guide? Thanks Gary ![Idea :idea:](./images/smilies/icon_idea.gif)

HI Gary! Some of the tricks Pete, Matt R and I have gleaned over the years are included in our iPhone app (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/butterf ... d499848412). When enough people buy the first version we'll be able to afford to issue an upgrade, including more pearls of wisdom ...

You are right, though - there's a lot of wisdom locked up in forum members' heads that doesn't appear in the guides.

Re: New Field Guide Please
Thanks for your reply Guy and please keep up the excellent analysis. On the field guide issue I guess I'm just going to have to invest in an iphone but in the mean time back to defacing the field guide! ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
