Greg’s Guide Field Guides

Know what you’re looking at.

Our day-trip guides get you out the door. Our Field Guides tell you what you’re seeing once you’re there. Each one is an ebook covering the wildlife of a single state, written for people who are just starting out: the species you’re most likely to meet, how to tell them apart, when to look, and exactly where to go to find them.

They’re inspired by the pocket guides that got Greg hooked on nature as a kid: approachable, inviting and easy to use. Read them on your phone, tablet or e-reader, and take them into the field.
