Synopsis: |
"Practical Birding" addresses questions such as what to look for when purchasing equipment, what field guides and other resources exist, and how cultivate skills in the field. In a down-to-earth, rich-in-experience style, the guide covers identification problems, aspects of sea- and nightbirding and the ways in which amateur birders help to make birds the best studied group of amimals in the world. Brief descriptions of Southern African habitats include a selection of top birding spots in each area. The guide ends with a well-compiled list of addresses and useful information for beginners and more experienced birders. |
