The Birds of the Middle East is the first comprehensive field guide dealing exclusively with the birds of this region. It covers all the species, including vagrants, found in the Arabia peninsula (including Socotra), Jordan, Lebanon, Israel, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Turkey and Cyprus. Over 700 species are described in concise texts giving full details of the plumage and voice of all recognizable forms. Distribution maps appear opposite the plates and are annotated with details of each species' status and preferred habitat.
Four artists have prepared a magnificent set of specially commissioned plates which show all the forms described in full colour.
The authors have extensive ornithological experience in the Middle East spanning over 30 years of research into the identification, biology and conservation of the many wonderful species to be found there. This authoritative book will be not only an indispensable guide to the visiting birder, but also a vital tool for those engaged in work to conserve and study the avifauna of this region which is of such importance both for the indigenous species and for those which pass through it on their migrations between the Palearctic and Africa.
