The Shorebird Guide

Michael O'Brien, Richard Crossley & Kevin Karlson

Join the experts in this revolutionary approach to bird identification. Experienced birders use the most easily observed characteristics - size, structure, behaviour, general coloration - to identify birds even before looking carefully at plumage details. The 870 absolutely stunning colour photographs will be a huge aid to birders at all levels identifying this special group of birds. Quiz questions in the captions will engage and challenge all birders and help them benefit from this streamlined, commonsense approach to identification.

"Here is a volume that sets a new standard in the literature of field identification. Three brilliant field birders have joined forces to give us a whole new look at how to identify the fascinating, elegant, challenging shorebirds. This book will be instantly essential, a necessary reference for anyone who really wants to know birds."
