Africa

"West Africa is among the last of the world's great birding regions to have its avifauna described and illustrated in an authoritative guide.Now,with Birds of Western Africa,the job has been done to the highest of standards-this is a must have for anyone with an interest in the birds of the region,or indeed the continent." DOMINIC MITCHELL,BIRDWATCH

mapDuring 30 years of residence in the region,author David Wells has acquired an unrivalled understanding of the birds of the Thai-Malay peninsula.His brand new work now brings together the most complete and up-to-date information on the peninsula's non-passerine species.This is a classic region of high biodiversity-home to a rich and special resident avifauna that is joined in season by a host of migrants from North Asia

The Handbook of Australian, New Zealand and Antarctic Birds is one of the most exciting and significant projects in Australian ornithology today.It provides an up-to-date comprehensive and accurate synthesis of our knowledge of all the birds that occur in the region.

Britain and Ireland has further regional pages covering Scotland,Northern England, Wales etc.- Bird Observatories - with which these islands are well-served - have played a major role in ornithology,especially in the study of migration and bird movements.
