Even if you've just started with a cheap small bird book and you've not yet reached the obsessive stage, this will undoubtedly show you the way, if not drive you all the way there. It provides everything you'll want to know about BC birds, and is very hard to put down, even though it's HUGE and heavy.

But I'm very glad I did because it has opened a new world for me.
