Product Description

Product Description
Divided by bird family, each identification plate is arranged to show similar-looking species together. For each one there are detailed identification illustrations showing the male, female and juvenile. These are supplemented by maps showing breeding and wintering locations, and voice descriptions of songs and calls. The information on "notebook" pages that follow describes and illustrate habitats, breeding and feeding behaviour and flight patterns.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent guide for new bird watchers and the experienced, 23 Jun 2001

By	fishandships@lineone.net (Isle of Lewis. Western Isles. Scotland) - See all my reviews

As a new birdwatcher I found this book well written and very informative, it is easy to read and understand without too many techinical details and jargon to be off putting to the novice but it encourages the reader to learn more. The illustrations and diagrams are excellent. Details of display, feeding, breeding behaviour, and habitat are invaluable. A must have book for all ages and experience giving insight to the private world of our feathered friends.

5.0 out of 5 stars What's that, 3 Jun 2006

By	Tom (Scotland) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Identifying British Birds (Paperback)

A common enough question when out on a walk. Here are birds identified by asking yourself what's it like? What size is it? Is it likely to be here and at this time of year? Is the colour shape or behaviour like something I know?

The casual or family walker interested enough to spend a few minutes leafing through will find herein a valuable resource for even a bad birdwatcher.
