WorldTwitch
Bird Book of the Year - 2001. Illustrations have been
borrowed from the best recent bird books and supplemented with
paintings of birds not otherwise illustrated. Each species
account includes a range map, identification, range and
population, ecology, threats conservation, targets and
references. Some new species are recognized, becoming instant
threatened or endangered species. I find it difficult to put
this book down when I pick it up and start reading. This is a
guide to where you need to go birding - NOW.
