Birds have always held a special fascination for mankind. The stud), of the avian species did more than simply spur homo sapiens on to conquer the skies; birds have also permeated the cultural and spiritual fabric of our lives. Add to this the fact that birdwatching is a pursuit that can be bltowed in town, country and at the coast all year round, without sophisticated equipment, and it is hardly surprising that so many look m it as a source of relaxation and inspiration.

If observation is the primary pleasure, it is enhanced by greater knowledge and understanding. This book focuses on the 180 commonest species which are either native to Britain or regular visitors to these shores. Concise physical descriptions are given for each bird, both at rest and in flight, and distinctive behaviour patterns are also detailed. Articulating the voice of a particular species is fraught with difficulty, but as birdsong can often be the key to identification this has also been included. The habitat for each species is briefly described. For migrant birds the intbrmation 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.

Gloriously illustrated and with dear, succinct descriptions, this superb guide will enable amateur enthusiasts to identify each species with confidence and extend their kieowledge and awareness of the rich diversity of British birdlife.
