内容説明
This is one of two companion field guides that illustrate and describe all of the approximately 1,800 bird species found in the Palearctic - the huge region that includes Europe, Asia north of the Himalayas, Africa north of the Sahara Desert, and the Middle East excluding the Gulf countries. This volume covers non-passerines - non-songbirds, including raptors, owls, swifts, hummingbirds, cuckoos, and pigeons. It includes every non-passerine species and subspecies, in every adult plumage - all illustrated and described by Norman Arlott, a leading bird artist with many years of field experience. The two volumes of "Birds of Europe, Russia, China, and Japan" are the only field guides to illustrate and describe every bird species in the Palearctic. And, for many parts of this region, these books provide the first and only field guides. Features of this book include: color plates of all field-identifiable species, including subspecies and color morphs; succinct facing-page text that concentrates on key field-identification features, including voice; and, detailed distribution map for each species. This title is well-researched and accessible. It features handy format. It is the ideal field guide. It is essential for anyone interested in Eurasian birds.

Excellent, if basic , guide to non-passerine birds of the palearctic
2009/2/25
形式:ペーパーバック
A small, simplified, but elegant paperback. It is both handy and well worthwhile if one isn't looking for an in-depth description of a particular species. This is a spotting and listing guide primarily, with excellent representative artwork (helps one to quickly grasp the unique stance and plumage of each bird on a species characteristic basis, and where possible to show several races). It clearly delineates each species and has a range map - inconveniently appended in the rear of the book.
This is a book of succinct information and the artwork of a very good illustrator, NOT an artist. When paired with the first volume on passerines, also by Arlott, they make a valuable, attractive addition to any birder's library.
