Simon
Aspinall has lived in the UAE since 1993, pursuing his professional
interests in conservation and ecology throughout the Middle East and
Caucasus. He has published extensively on natural history, especially
within Arabia and with an emphasis on birds; traveling widely in that
quest he has probably seen more species in the region than any other
modern-day birder. Richard Porter has been involved with birds in the Middle East since
1966 and is
an adviser on bird conservation for BirdLife International. He is the
author or co-author of several books on the Middle East and the
groundbreaking Flight Identification of European Raptors. John Gale, Mike Langman and Brian Small are
world-renowned bird illustrators with many books to their credit.
