This informative guide covers all the important types of bird behaviour, including movement, feeding, breeding, migration, navigation, distribution, range, life and death, all of which are lavishly illustrated with full-colour photographs and artwork. There is a whole section dedicated to the behaviour of different species groups, from divers and grebes right through to sparrows, buntings and finches. Full of enthusiasm for the subject, this indispensable and expertly written book will pay ample rewards when bird watching, giving the reader a real insight into and understanding of the psychology of bird behaviour.
