How to See Birds An Enthusiast's Guide

About this book

From the giants of our skies to the sweetest singing garden robin, from London street to Indian jungle and taking in countries as far afield as Albania and Australia, this book is, in a way, also a story of the author’s life. Each chapter starts with the smallest bird and builds towards the biggest and includes colour photographs. How To See Birds takes us on a very personal birdwatching journey and, in the process, helps us to really see birds.
