Must have for amateur naturalists

My new favorite field guide! I am in San Bernardino Mountains and it has our local birds, flowers by color, shape, petal number, shrubs, trees, bugs, snakes, rodents, mushrooms. Look alikes have small print of things to look for to identify. Not photos but very detailed drawings for each.
