About this book

Language: Spanish

Bird identification can be very confusing for the beginner, and because many species are multicoloured, birds are not the most obvious group of animals for an identification guide by colour. This brand new guide takes a bold, fresh approach to the subject, picking out colours and features by which birds can be grouped for easy identification.

Fabulous new artwork illustrates all the commoner species of western Europe (and even a few of the less common species) and helpful captions point out the key features of each species. The second half of Identificar las Aves por el Color is a more traditional-type field guide in taxonomic order, using colour photographs instead of illustrations. About 200 species are covered.

Summary in Spanish:
Concebida especialmente para los principiantes y los observadores ocasionales, esta guía es la primera que acomete el tema de la identificación de las aves comunes por sus características más visibles: los colores. No hace falta ningún conocimiento previo en ornitología para utilizarla. Las claves de utilización por la silueta y luego por el color remiten a las páginas en las que se describen juntas las aves que tienen rasgos comunes, para poder hacer comparaciones directas e identificar la especie que se ha observado. Más adelante, cada una de estas aves se describe en una página entera en la que se reúnen los plumajes principales de la especie (macho, hembra, joven) y en algunos casos el plumaje de verano y el de invierno bajo la forma de una fotografía y de dibujos anotados. Un texto conciso en el que se describe el hábitat y la distribución geográfica de la especie, así como algunos detalles de su biología y de su comportamiento, que permiten determinar los periodos y los lugares favorables para observarla.
