Dear
Customers,
Welcome to the NHBS Ornithology Catalogue for birdwatchers, conservationists and ecologists. Our Ornithology Catalogue is a selection of the best new and forthcoming birding books, plus featured classics and bestsellers.
Several great new titles on shorebirds have just been or are about to be published: An Atlas of Wader Populations in Africa and Western Eurasia, Shorebirds of the Northern Hemisphere, New Naturalist: Wildfowl and Wildfowl of the Northern Hemisphere. For a more in-depth understanding of the wetlands environment don’t miss The Wetlands Handbook.
Bird conservationists will be excited to see new Important Bird Areas books for Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan – each of these authoritative inventories represent a huge leap forward in the level of information available for these regions. Useful in the field are: A Best Practice Guide for Wild Bird Monitoring Schemes - providing recommendations on establishing, running and improving national wild bird monitoring schemes - and the BTO's Bird Ringing: The Concise Guide - which tells you what you need to know about bird ringing.
There are major new titles for East Africa including Birds of The Horn of Africa and an avifauna to the Birds of Ethiopia and Eritrea.
Browse our wide range of Wildlife Equipment, including these birding bestsellers: The Remembird, Schwegler 1B Nest Box, and the Droll Yankees New Generation Seed Feeder. Watch - and hear - birds up close in their nest with the Nest Box Camera Kit, and help protect your field guides from rain and dust with the Vista Organiser.
We hope you enjoy browsing the NHBS Ornithology Catalogue. Please also free to browse our Monthly Catalogue, which consists of around 400 titles added to our database each month across our subject range.
Best wishes,
Nigel Massen
Managing Director

Books
Working in close collaboration with Professor William Sutherland at
Cambridge University, we have distributed copies of his Conservation
Handbook and Bird Ecology & Conservation to people working in science and conservation in developing
countries. Several other titles are in the pipleline.
"Thanks a million for your thoughtfulness. I received the Conservation
Handbook. It is very useful to my project. Once again thank you very
much and may the good God bless us all as we strive to make the environment
a better place to live." J Grody Dorbor, Liberia
World
Land Trust
The Books for Conservation programme is an exciting partnership between
the World Land Trust and NHBS. From simple beginnings in 2002 when we
donated surplus books to the WLT, this programme has developed into
an important resource for struggling NGOs throughout the world. To date
NHBS have donated hundreds of books to this WLT donation programme.
