The field guide to the birds of Australia (Updated and rev. ed)

The definitive and most respected guide to Australian bird identification. First published in 1980, Graham Pizzey's field guide combines a depth and breadth of knowledge with beautiful, full-colour illustrations by Frank Knight.

This 8th edition was updated and revised by scientific editor Peter Menkhorst, and includes 46 newly recorded or recently described species, plus essential information on 820 species of birds, with 250 full-colour plates, including more than 2500 individual portraits specially painted for this book, and 750 distribution maps.

Field marks are highlighted in the text to help birdwatchers distinguish between similar species and full details of the nesting habits, voice characteristics, habitats and range for every species make this a must for both experts and amateurs.
