Far too many to even think about listing!
Among the most regularly opened are the Collins Bird Guide, BWP, and the Dijkstraa/Lewington Dragonflies of Europe.
The MacMillan Guide to Bird Identification is recommended if you can find a copy (and the MacMillan Birders Guide for those who travel in Europe or are into their rarities).
