The definitive photographic guide to the amazing avifauna of the Middle East. The Middle East has a wonderfully broad and diverse avifauna, featuring a host of wintering and passage migrants, enigmatic and sometimes colourful breeders, and even a few endemics that occur nowhere else. The perfect companion for any wildlife-friendly visitor, Birds of the Middle East provides photographic coverage of more than 320 species that regularly occur in the region. Concise text for each species includes information on identification, songs and calls, behaviour, distribution and habitat, with each photo having been carefully selected to guide identification. A guide to the best birdwatching sites in the Middle East is also included. Portable yet authoritative, this is the perfect guide for travellers and birdwatchers visiting this spectacular and bird-rich slice of western Asia.
If I ever get back to the Middle East, I will certainly take this gem. * Birdwatching Magazine *
Each bird has a concise but excellent description and where to see it. There is a section on the countries covered, which includes some good birding sites along with images of habitat. * Bird Watching *
Fits the bill for a book that can be kept in the side pocket of a backpack ... The photographs are typically of excellent quality and cover variation well. * British Birds *
