Hardcover. Condition: New. Until this book was published birdwatchers visiting the Middle East and North Africa had been frustrated by the lack of a comprehensive field guide to these bird-rich regions. This excellent guide - illustrated with exquisite accuracy and clarity by Ian Willis and with a thorough, well-researched text by three highly respected ornithologists - brought sighs of relief from Agadir to Bahrain! rnThis book is intended as a companion to guides which primarily cover the birds of Europe, notably A Field Guide to the Birds of Britain and Europe by Peterson, Mountfort and Hollom. It includes all known breeding, wintering, migratory and accidental species in the region. Of over 700 species covered 350 are illustrated in 40 color plates, focusing on the birds not illustrated in Europe/North Africa guides. Where appropriate, there are several paintings of a specise to show plumage differences of sex, age, race and season. In addition there are over 100 line drawings as aids to identification in the text. rnThe species accounts treat identification with special thoroughness and there are also sections for voice, habitat and status, plus two-color distribution maps. rnCovers: Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Mauritania, Oman, Palestinian Territories, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Syria, United Arab Emirates, Yemen.…

Condition: new. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1976). (1974) 1976 2nd edition. 8vo (155 x 255mm). Pp184. 176 b/w photographs of raptors in flight, illustrations by Ian Willis. Black boards, spine titled in gilt. Slight bumped, edges browned, spine quite faded. Good-plus in stained adhesive plastic covered and price-clipped dust-wrapper. "The identification of the diurnal birds of prey is especially difficult. There is wide variation in plumage among some species, especially the eagles and buzzards, and in all species general outlines and wing positions are much affected by the prevailing conditions, by wind and light, and by the bird's behaviour at the time. Often, too, the birds are only sighted at long range, and the authors believe that when travelling extensively in Europe even the expert cannot hope to identify more than seventy percent of the raptors seen." This book arranges the 38 European raptor species into seven groups according to morphology, and describes what members of each have in common, and what they don't. "For this second edition the text has been revised, with more detailed revisions to the 'Buzzards', Aquila and Accipiter sections. Some drawings have also been revised by the artist in the light of recent knowledge, and there are 42 new photographs." .…
