This beautifully illustrated book on birds includes articles on 244 species of birds, grouped by order and family.

This is followed by a fact panel listing its scientific name and other taxonomic information, followed by sections describing different features of the bird and its lifestyle. There is also a status heading denoting the threat of extinction or lack thereof for the bird. Finally, a world map visually portrays the distribution of each species, showing its natural range. Also includes a glossary and index. A wonderful, convenient reference for any bird lover.
