Published to great critical acclaim in 2009, this is a fully revised and updated version of the second edition of the most user-friendly field guide
to the birds of Borneo, covering Sabah, Sarawak, Brunei, and the Indonesian states of Kalimantan.
The book gives descriptions of 669 species living or reported on the island, including all 52 endemic species. These are superbly illustrated in 141 colour plates with more than 2,000 full colour bird images, including most of the sexual variants and immature forms of polymorphic species. Each plate is accompanied by species descriptions covering taxonomy, size, call, range, distribution, habits and status. Distribution is shown by detailed thumbnail maps. There are 7 habitat plates, 12 regional maps showing Borneo's top 130 birdwatching sites, fast-find graphic indexes to the birds of Kinabalu, and a full overview of vegetation, climate and ecology.
