Bird Tracks: A Field Guide to British Species
£22.00
Bird Tracks: A Guide to British Species explores and enhances the ability to identify a diversity of birds using just their tracks and trails. John Rhyder and David Wege approach this subject from the perspective of both the tracker and the birdwatcher. They have examined and described 139 species, each richly illustrated with a mixture of photographs and drawings of their unique tracks and trails. Bird Tracks is a comprehensive guide for trackers and birdwatchers interested in studying species found around the British Isles, and can also be of great use across north-western Europe. Written by experts in their respective fields, this work represents several years of research collated into the most in-depth study of bird tracks published to date.

A wonderful book that shares rare knowledge in a clear and focused way. I love it. 'Most folk do it by sight, some by call or song, and now you can do it by lD-ing birds' tracks. Yes, birdwatching has taken another turn, thanks to this book.' * Birdwatching magazine * Birdwatching magazine's Book of the Month * Birdwatching magazine * 'This informative book is one of the most in-depth studies of bird tracks published to date.’ * Countryside magazine * 'I have no doubt that we will make regular use of this book in future, both in the UK and elsewhere in Europe. Congratulations to the authors and publishers on producing such an accessible and helpful guide, which deserves to reach a wide audience.' -- Dr Ian Burfield * BirdLife International magazine * 'A smart, well-laid-out reference book on the footprints of birds found in the UK and provides a further resource and tool for both those of us simply interested in finding out what bird has left a print, to others looking more in depth at which birds are using aparticular habitat.' * International Journal of Avian Science *
