Description

An introductory guide to 180 species of bird commonly found throughout Scotland in the best-selling pocketable Gem format

Unlike many field guides, Gem Scottish Birds does not cover birds which only visit occasionally, or which occur in such small numbers and are so difficult to identify that only experienced birdwatchers can spot them

Instead, it concentrates on the commoner species that the amateur birdwatcher is most likely to see, plus a few scarcer ones of particular interest

Each entry includes a Full-colour illustration, the Common name and Latin and Gaelic name, the season in which the bird is likely to be spotted and Details on habitat, feeding habits and voice. Also maps and contact information to help you get there

The ideal guide for both visitors and residents of Scotland who wish to learn about the fascinating wealth of birds that can be found there

Paperback, 192 pages
