This book presents the most complete and up to date guide to the
recognition of the diurnal raptors of Europe and the Middle East yet
published. It is written by an acknowledged expert, the author of many
definitive identification articles and veteran of countless tours and
expeditions. Over 700 high quality colour photographs have been
specially chosen to show the plumages of each age and sex class of
every species found in Europe and the Middle East, back up by a
detailed text enabling birdwatchers to get to grips with even the most
difficult species. The photographs are complemented by almost 100
drawings focussing on particular identification details, and the whole
is fully referenced with a list of nearly 300 key papers and articles.
This book sets a new standard for raptor watching and identification in
Europe and further afield.
