This excellent AA field guide focuses on the 530 most common species which are either native to Britain and Europe. Concise physical descriptions are given for each bird, both at rest and in flight, and distinctive behaviour patterns are also detailed. Habitat and location maps are also given.
The habitat for each species is briefly described. For migrant birds the information given relates to the British habitat. Nesting and breeding habits are also outlined, providing details of egg-laying and the number of broods produced.
Location maps show the distribution and range of each species, including seasonal migration patterns.
The Guide has a handsome and heavy-duty binding. The book is bound with secure double-stitch pages designed to give years of reference in the field. Although this volume not our smallest field guide, it is far and away the most comprehensive.
Thouroghly illustrated with over 1000 easy to see full colour drawings showing male female as well as juvenile variations in plumage and with clear, succinct descriptions, this superb guide will enable new and seasoned enthusiasts to identify each species with confidence and extend their knowledge and awareness of the rich diversity of British and European birdlife.
