You could also take help from online references. I use flowersofindia.in for id'ing flowering plants. I'm sure there might be something on bugs too.
Wild Things
Welcome. Sachin I am good only at birds. So, if you need Id's on other spottings like plants and bugs, you might want to ask other spotters. For e.g: Juan is great at bugs and dan is superb for plants.
