Synopsis: |
How do you tell a cut-throat finch from a red-headed finch, or a greater blue-eared glossy starling from a lesser blue-eared glossy starling? Whether the reader is an experienced birdwatcher or a newcomer, this book aims to make identification of easily confused species a simple process. The book identifies 99 similar-looking groups of birds from all over the Southern African region, aiming to train readers to focus on the most important identifying points when spotting birds. Species are illustrated with both colour paintings and simplified black and white drawings that highlight differences and ignore similarities, aiming to make a quick identification easy. Pointers on the illustrations and a few lines of text isolate distinguishing features, and all birds are cross-referenced to "Newman's Birds of Southern Africa". LBJs have not been treated in this book, but are treated separately in "LBJs Made Easier". |
