A comprehensive photographic guide to the gull species of the
Western Palearctic Gulls occupy a particularly important place in
the world of birds. But because they are notoriously difficult to
identify, they have been relatively neglected in the ornithological
literature. Gulls of Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East
offers the most up-to-date guide for gull identification in Europe
and beyond. With a direct and visual approach, and an abundance of
beautiful color photographs, this book provides thorough accounts
of all species and subspecies of gulls found in the Western
Palearctic. The guide compares similar taxa and addresses the
complexities of identifying hybrids. Gulls of Europe, North Africa,
and the Middle East will be the standard work for identifying these
birds for some time to come. Richly illustrated with nearly 1,400
color photographs Thorough accounts of all species and subspecies
of gulls found in the Western Palearctic Up-to-date information for
easy and accurate identification of 45 species
The first comprehensive field guide to every bird species in
Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East Birds of Europe, North
Africa, and the Middle East is the first comprehensive pocket-sized
photographic field guide to every bird species in Europe--this
includes winter visitors and common migrants but also all rarities
to the region, even if they have been recorded only once. The guide
also covers hypothetical species--those that have a good chance of
being recorded due to such factors as range expansion and changing
weather patterns. The book's 2,200 stunning color photographs mean
that every species is pictured, making field identification quick
and easy. Succinct text covers key identification features, voice,
habitat, and distribution, and distribution maps are provided for
regular breeding species. Particular attention and details are
given to help differentiate similar-looking species. Lavishly
illustrated, up-to-date, and wide-ranging, Birds of Europe, North
Africa, and the Middle East is an essential field guide for every
naturalist and birder. * First comprehensive field guide to all
species recorded in Europe: resident, winter visitor, common
migrant, and rarity*860 species covered using 2,200 photographs*
