An important tool of a birdwatcher is a good identification guide. Many cover the birds of Europe but few deal exclusively with Ireland. This first photographic identification guide to the birds of Ireland has over 1400 photos of more than 240 species, in an easy, quick reference format. With eight to fifteen images per species, the key identification features of each bird are shown, with concise descriptions and pointers to indicate important features. This field guide is endorsed by BirdWatch Ireland, Ireland's leading bird conservation organization. Photographs by Mark Carmody.
