Produktbeschreibung

Bloomsbury Pocket Guides are essential photographic guides to the natural world.

This compact title is an essential guide to every aspect of the subject, from when and what to feed the birds to building bird tables and nest boxes and planting a garden that will provide nesting, feeding and roosting places.

There is also an ID guide to 80 of the most common garden bird species, including the familiar Chaffinch and Blue Tit and more unusual visitors such as Brambling, Redstart and Tawny Owl.

This book is as visually impressive as it is easy to use, with many stunning full-page and double-page images to support the authoritative text.

Printed on quality paper, the paperback format with flaps adds to the book's durability in the field and provides built-in page-markers for quick reference.
