In Search of Arctic Birds
de Richard Vaughan(Ed. A C Black Publishers Ltd) Isbn : 0856610712

Arctic Birds have long held a fascination for Richard Vaughan, whose numerous trips to the region, have provided the raw material for a number of previous books.

Birds of Prey
de Weldon(Ed. Facts On File Inc) Isbn : 0816021821
38 €
Approximately 292 species of raptors--birds of prey including eagles, hawks, kites, falcons, and vultures--exist today in all parts of the world except the polar regions and some islands. The articles collected here provide a comprehensive survey of raptor classification, biology, behavior, and conservation, as well as a review of human-raptor interactions, which have ranged from deification to deliberate campaigns of extermination. Balancing scientific data and clarity of style, this is accessible to nonspecialists without condescending or oversimplifying. A fine complement to field guides; for public and undergraduate birding collections.- Paul B. Cors, Univ. of Wyoming Lib., LaramieCopyright 1990 Reed Business Information, Inc.
