Illustrated by more than 950 photographs, Birds and Plants of the Little Desert allows readers to discover and identify over 200 birds and 430 plants that live in the Little Desert, Victoria. The majority of these photographs have been taken close enough to show the finer details of the individual birds and plants. Others show the general vegetation and various habitats. Birds and Plants of the Little Desert will be useful not only in the Little Desert, but also for appreciating the birds and plants on adjoining roadsides and in nearby bush reserves, particularly the Wail State Forest.
