Warblers of the Western Palaearctic |

£16.00 * SOLD |
Tim Parmenter and Clive Byers map'The most important aspect of birdwatching, especially perhaps with warblers, is observation. This concerns not just what the bird looks like, but how it behaves. Does the bird cock its tail or does it fan it? Does it droop its wings or flick them? Does it feed on the ground or high up in the tree canopy? Is it restless and active, or slow and cumbersome? Does it hover or fly-catch when feeding, or merely skulk in the undergrowth? All these things, plus the general look and attitude of the bird, contribute to its 'jizz'. They greatly help identification, and form an important part of this book.. |

Kevin Baker. Many warblers are notoriously difficult to
identify in the field (and even in the hand !) and, until now, there has been no
definitive
guide to the species of these regions. One hundred and forty-five species (and all their
races) are described in detail, covering all aspects of identification. As with other books
in the Helm Identification Guides series, the treatment is exhaustive, with text including
sections on moult, voice, habitat and behaviour, distribution and measurements. All species
(and many races) are illustrated within the 48 colour plates, and there is also a colour
distribution map for each species, with a wealth of line drawings complementing the
text. Many groups and species of warbler, such as prinias and tailorbirds, have never been
described or illustrated in this detail before. Moreover, the book covers recently described
species new to science and brings up to date the latest thinking on taxonomic treatment. "Shorebirds, Seabirds and Wildfowl are essential purchases regardless of your birding interests and I have no hesitation in placing Warblers in the same category"....BIRDWATCHING Hardback; 360pp. 48 colour plates. 145 colour maps. 100 line drawings.
