Media reviews

"A great little pocket guide for anyone travelling to, or through, Singapore. Each species has a brief description and is accompanied with one image, usually (although not always) of an adult male. Birders will probably not find this comprehensive or thorough enough, but would be great for business travellers, or those with a casual interest in the stunning birds of the region."
- BTO book reviews

"[...] The book has a familiar layout: introductory chapters covering geography, climate and habitats, and detailed accounts of 11 sites recommended for watching animals. Recent efforts to document the pelagic avifauna is bearing fruit, more species being added to the already impressively long bird list of 380 species. There are accounts, accompanied by small but high-quality photographs, of 280 commonly seen bird species, each giving a description of the species, a summary of its distribution and habitats, sites where it is most likely to be seen, and its national conservation status. For a handful of sexually dimorphic species, males and females are depicted separately, and only for Brown Wood Owl Strix leptogrammica do we get to see the juvenile (which looks like a different species). Overall, this little book is a very useful guide when visiting the island nation."
