Birds of Prey is a notoriously advanced group of species to identify, despite good views and knowledge. It is actually, in many cases easier to identify this group of species in flight, where you often see them, soaring high in the sky. This is Dick Forsman’s new guide to the birds of prey, which has rapidly become the ultimate guide to the Western Palearctic raptors!
The book describes over 60 species and gives deeper information about subspecies when it’s necessary. The geographic areas include Europe, North Africa, Middle East, Arabia, and east to Central Asia.
The guide is built up with 1095 stunning colour photographs and 7 colour & black & white illustrations. The thorough text covers every plumage and age in breathtaking detail, and each species are illustrated with a range of photographs covering all the principal plumages.
