Product Description

Product Description
Written by Dr. Paul Sterry, a leading wildlife author and Mike Toms of the B.T.O. (British Trust for Ornithology) "Garden Birds and Wildlife" is a truly unique, must-have guide perfect for all wildlife watchers. The guide includes unique information from the BTO, providing readers with more information about birds and wildlife in their gardens than any other guide. Each entry is accompanied by numerous photographs and illustrations to help with identification, regardless of the time of year or what the bird is doing. The pictures also underline behaviour and help readers understand why the bird behaves the way it does. Each entry is highly detailed and includes distribution patterns and seasonal trends presented in clear, easy-to-use graphs; details of size, food, nest and eggs; bird numbers; and typical lifespan and the longest recorded lifespan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb illustrations and highly informative, 22 Dec 2008
By Bluebell (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
I am very impressed by this book. I'm a keen bird-watcher and have many bird books, but must say that the photographs and illustrations in this book are outstandingly good. The distribution maps appear to be up-to-date reflecting the spread North of some species as the climate warms. It's very difficult nowadays to get pictures of birds' eggs and so I am delighted to see excellent examples in this publication. The birds described are not exclusively the common garden birds and I think this book would be useful for identifying most of the birds you're likely to encounter in the countryside. It's not just about birds: there are most informative and well-illustrated sections on amphibians, mammals, butterflies and moths that you may see in your garden and beyond. With the modern emphasis on habitat being crucial to encouraging wildlife there is helpful advice about which garden plants are beneficial and which wild-flowers to encourage. Altogether a "must have" for anybody interested in the other life forms that share your garden.
The book would be good value at the full price and is an absolute bargain at the discounted one.

5.0 out of 5 stars BTO Garden Birds and Wildlife Review, 7 April 2009
By Q. Gallagher (Portsmouth, GB) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
An excellent buy, there is a great deal of information provided but it is very clearly presented and easy to read. The photographs are large, made possible by generous page sizes, and of good quality which is a big help with identification.
