For transparency's sake, Guy was my wife's uncle who tragically passed away before I could meet him and geek out about our common passion. So I have a bias, but I don't care. Today I received his life's work, the revised and updated classic, "Ducks, Geese, and Swans of North America." I'm more than impressed, excited and honored to have this in my library.
The 2 volume set is a surprising value and can be found on Amazon:
A former student of Guy wrote a blog about Guy and his book for those interested:
An uplifting side note...continuing his father's legacy, Dan Baldassarre received his Ph.D. from Cornell this spring and is currently a post-doctoral fellow at the University of Miami, researching blood-feeding vampire finches in the Galapagos Islands. Pretty cool, I know!
Sorry if I violated a listserve rule Doug, but I made sure I didn't mention bears. Whoops!
