Field Guide to the Birds of Britain and Ireland by Mark Golley

Stunningly illustrated and simple to use, this brand new, fully updated, edition of a practical and informative guide is a must for any birdwatcher’s pocket.

Arranged in taxonomic species order, it is ideal for both the beginner and the more experienced birdwatcher. The comprehensive and informative jargon-free text is written by birdwatching expert Mark Golley. This book is packed with identification tips, details of habitat and calls for over 280 bird species, and includes all those seen regularly in Britain and Ireland, as well as some of the less common migrants. It is illustrated throughout with more than 1,000 spectacular, full-colour illustrations by leading bird artist David Daly.

As Golley notes, his is 'a book for those with a passion for birds,' which can further be interpreted as meaning it is - and this is important - not only for those with an existing knowledge of birds* The Well-Read Naturalist *
