Featuring 272 colour plates by three of the world’s leading bird illustrators, this practical guide also includes concise species accounts describing key identification features, status, range, habitat and voice. Distribution maps for each species are also included.

Fully illustrated throughout, this is an essential reference guide for anyone visiting or living in this wildlife-rich area.
