The habitats of Great Britain, Europe and Africa boast some of the
most interesting and adaptable members of the avian world. This
accessible and fully illustrated guide presents some of the rare
and familiar species of these lands. From the tiny malachite
sunbird to the enormous ostrich; from the grace of a mute swan to
the striking casque of an African crowned hornbill - each has the
power to enthrall.An expert, accessible introduction explains how
birds evolved, bird behaviour, practical tips on fieldcraft, and
the different habitats in which birds can be found. A directory of
over 560 species features intricate colour artworks, and details
everything from variable plumage to bill shapes, distribution,
size, food, eggs and nests. The birds are grouped by habitat and
type - including oceanic, estuarine, freshwater, woodland, open
country and urban species. With over 535 individual colour
illustrations and photographs, this comprehensive visual
encyclopedia is a classic reference for all bird enthusiasts.
