From the introduction During the early 1980s when we used to observe the birds at the estuaries seacoast and other wetlands of North Kerala we had always been perplexed at the identity of several species of Shorebirds encountered. The bird books available at the time we found to our consternation were totally inadequate to deal with this complex group of waders. Later the book Shorebirds an Identification Guide to the Waders of the World (Hayman et al. 1986) appeared on the scene. Apart from being extremely useful to correct identification this classic made us aware of the intricacies of the various plumages phases etc. concerning the Shorebirds. The fact that more than 12 species of shore birds hitherto unrecorded in Kerala were found to occur here since 1987 underlines the importance of this book and the interest generated in this difficult group of birds in the region though only a handful of birdwatchers possessed a copy of the book. We wanted to share the identification skills we had newly acquired and the culmination was a workshop on the field identification of shorebirds held at Madayipara Kannur district in August 1995 in which several birdwatchers from different parts of Kerala participated. But even after almost two decades since then we find that shorebird study in Kerala is still in its infancy. There are still only a few individuals who grapple with the shorebird identification problems there are no regular monitoring programmes for the major wintering areas and there is no ringing data at all on our shorebirds. The present volume which is a regional guide on the shorebirds gulls and terns will generate sufficient new interest in this interesting group of birds. 169 pp.

See images for condition. About the book >.>.> The grey and white shorebirds may not fit into the norms attributed to the aesthetic beauty, w…hich is generally associated with birds, by the layman. These birds are neither colourful, nor are they good songsters. But, once you observe them closely, you will find that they are second to none other in beauty; the grey shading on the sandpiper is delicate, the scalloping and barring on the snipes are intricate and the contrast in the black and white plumage of the oystercatcher and avocet is striking. The perky movements of these birds as they feed are truly endearing; the speed with which the sanderlings pursue and then flee the roaring waves, their legs in a blur, is breath-taking. And once they take-off, they twist and turn in unison, maintaining complete harmony. The flight of the gulls and terns is sheer poetry in motion. For the ornithologist, every aspect of the shorebirds is fascinating. Their identification itself presents a challenge. Their long flight across.
