Product Description
Product Description
There are 120 species in the Corvid family, of which some are colourful and exotic and others are highly endangered. All species are illustrated and each plate is accompanied by an informative caption page summarizing the most important identification criteria, alongside colour distribution maps. The text provides a thorough review of all aspects of Corvid behaviour, distribution, population and taxonomy as well as the standard rigorous discussion of all matters relating to identification.

Her work has appeared in many books, including The Birds of the Western Palearctic, the RSPB Book of British Birds, Wildfowl, and The Handbook of Bird Identification for Europe and the Western Palearctic.
