Containing details of more than 260 species and over 1,600 photos, the key identification features of each bird are shown in detail not seen before in an identification guide to Ireland's birds, with concise descriptions and pointers that will help you identify birds in an easy, quick-reference format. This beautiful new pocket-sized edition includes up-to-date distribution maps for all common species and an updated list of birds of conservation concern in Ireland.
