Garden Bird Behaviour

Robert Burton

Whether you own several acres of garden in the remote countryside or a window-box in an urban area, observing the behaviour of garden birds, from acrobatic tits to blackbirds in full song, is an intensely rewarding experience. The book explores a wide range of bird behaviour including courtship, territorial behaviour, singing, nesting, foraging, flying, feeding, and migration; it's an invaluable guide that will help you get the most out of your birdwatching hobby.

Written in a friendly and encouraging style, with wonderful photographs and full-colour artwork, it is as enjoyable to read as it is informative. The emphasis is on leisurely observing the birds that frequent your garden and taking time to spot the different characteristics of each species as they feed, interact or raise their young, in order to gradually build up a comprehensive understanding of their behaviour. 144 pages.
