Birds comprise one of the most distinctive groups of creatures on the planet and the variety and diversity of size, shape and colour is uniquely fascinating.
The first section of this book explores every aspect of bird life from an in-depth look at bird evolution, covering general bird behaviour and the importance of conservation, to a detailed breakdown of their special anatomy.
The second section is a comprehensive visual guide to the major species on the American continent including many rare and unusual birds.
Beautifully illustrated and grouped by habitat and type, there are also details for each species on identification, distribution, size, habitat, nesting, eggs and food.
