Complete Illustrated Encyclopedia of Birds of the World by David Alderton
This comprehensive illustrated encyclopaedia of birds of the world presents a fantastic visual guide to many of the major avian species and families, from America's tiniest insect-catchers to the giant, flightless species still living on the African plains. A 420-page directory covering America, Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia and the Polar continents features full illustrated entries for hundreds of birds, as well as detailing many other related species.
David Alderton's lifelong interest in birds has seen him travel to every continent to study them in a wide range of habitats. He has also been involved with birds in the conservation sphere, promoting ways in which species can be encouraged to breed in suburban gardens. As a writer, David is well known internationally for his articles and books about birds for readers of all ages. He often broadcasts on avian topics, and is a consultant to the Pet Industry Joint Advisory Council, based in Washington, DC.
