Concise Coastal Bird Guide

by Richard Allen, David Daly, Szabolc Kokay, Dan Cole and Stephen Message - £4.99  Bloomsbury Publishing PLC (2015)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781472921796 | ISBN 10: 1472921798

This beautifully illustrated mini field guide is packed with information on the coastal birds of Britain and the near Continent. It covers more than 170 species, which are illustrated with superb full-colour artworks that show - where relevant - variations in plumage, for example for male, female and juvenile birds, and breeding and non-breeding birds. A concise written account covering size, description, voice, habitat, distribution and habits appears on the same page.
 
The easy-to-follow layouts and superb artworks aid quick and accurate identification, and make this book an indispensable reference in the field as well as at home. It is compact enough to fit in the pocket yet packed with essential information for the nature enthusiast. To protect it against the elements, the book is wrapped in a durable plastic wallet. Also included is a foldout insert illustrating such topics as variations in plumage in flying birds of different species.
 
Renowned natural history artists Richard Allen, David Daly, Szabolc Kokay, Dan Cole and Stephen Message painted the artworks.
