The ultimate field guide to the birds of Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi.
With a range of habitats from mountain forests and wetland basins to the great, sweeping savannas, East Africa is one of the world's great wildlife travel destinations, and it has an avifauna of staggering diversity to match. This includes many regional endemics and scarcities, some of which have very small and vulnerable ranges, plus a host of Palearctic visitors in the northern winter.
This comprehensive field guide describes and illustrates 1,448 species, including all the resident, migrant, and vagrant birds of Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi. Featuring 289 colour plates with more than 3,500 images, it depicts all the plumages and major races likely to be encountered. The species accounts are accompanied by accurate distribution maps, while the introductory sections include information on conservation and maps of important bird areas in the region.
Now in its second edition, this book is an indispensable guide for the visiting birdwatcher. It is also a vital tool for those engaged in work to conserve and study the avifauna of the region. Birds of East Africa is a true must-have for anyone birding in the region.
