This guide offers a whole range of general and specialized information on the subject of birds and birdwatching. It does not assume that you have any knowledge of birds, only that you are interested.
The book is designed to help the reader to identify birds likely to be seen anywhere in Europe, as well as providing fascinating background information. There is a detailed examination of the different aspects of bird behaviour - using diagrams and photographs to illustrate particular features - and expert advice on birdwatching, including equipment to use, keeping records, photography, as well as a map of European birdwatching sites.
A valuable identification section contains colour illustrations of over 340 species of birds, with distribution maps and hints on what to look for.
