The Macmillan Birder's Guide to European and Middle Eastern Birds is designed to enable birdwatchers to distinguish between those rare birds that are often confused with a common species. This volume extends the range covered in Bird Identification (1989) to birds of Europe, the Middle East and North Africa. There are 208 species illustrated in 90 plates.
The book has been arranged around 70 'confusion' groups, which have been given enough space and illustration to explore the subject in depth. Handwritten captions highlight points of similarity and difference while the text incorporates the latest identification techniques.
The comments on immature birds, sex differences, seasonal and race variations, calls, distribution, habitat and aberrant plumage and the extraordinary attention to detail will solve most of the identification problems faced by the enthusiastic birder.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Harris, Alan (illustrator). Identifying "confusion" species - those birds that have strong similarities - can be remarkably difficult. The first Macmillan Field Guide to Bird Identification broke new ground by grouping together birds that are hard to tell apart and pointing out the differences. In Birding magazine it was described as "the standard for all future bird books". This eagerly awaited new guide takes the same acclaimed approach, this time helping readers identify the European and Middle Eastern species that regularly visit Britain. The clearly written text is accompanied by 80 plates of exquisite illustrations and hand-written captions. Species covered include: petrels, herons, eagles, falcons, sandplovers, Armenian gulls, larks, warblers, redpolls and buntings. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers GOR003685224
