The Birdwatcher's Pocket Guide to Britain and Europe by Rob Hume

The Birdwatcher's Pocket Guide is the perfect portable reference for birdwatcher's of all levels. You will not find a more compact and comprehensive guide to the birds that live in or reguarly visit Britain and the rest of Europe. Some 430 species are covered and there are at least six illustrations of each one. Peter Hayman's unique painting style brings the birds to life. The well-researched text tells you everything you need to know to be able to identify different species correctly. Symbols show at a glance in which habitats each bird can be found and at what time of year each is present - both essential factors for correct identification. Differentiating between one species and another could never be made simpler. This guide is the essential companion for taking into the field wherever you go birdwatching in Britain and Europe.
