A Photographic Guide to Birds of Borneo by G W H Davison

The island of Borneo is one of the world's biodiversity hotspots and a birdwatcher's paradise. Many of its species are rainforest specialists, but such a large island also has widely different habitats attracting a surprisingly wide range of avian visitors. Of particular interest are the more than 30 species that are endemic to Borneo (i.e., found nowhere else in the world). 252 of Borneo's most interesting and spectacular birds are featured in this concise and easy-to-use guide, each species illustrated in full colour and with key information on identification, habitat and distribution. This new edition is fully updated with all the latest names and recently recognised species.
