Ascension Island 9th
– 20th February 2004
- As part of an Army Ornithological Society
survey of the Sooty "Wideawake" Tern fairs on Ascension Island,
I managed to visit between the above dates. The Island is fascinating
not just for its vast colonies of sea birds but also for its geology,
endemic plant life, Green-backed Turtles and Land Crabs. The
aim was to survey the Sooty Tern colonies and ring 2000 birds,
whilst also surveying White Terns and Land birds...Mark Easterbrook
reports.

Flight Identification of
European Seabirds
Anders Blomdahl, Bertil Breife
& Niklas Holström: Buy
from Amazon.com
or Amazon.co.uk
- This book is set to become the
dedicated sea-watchers bible. Flight photography is
very difficult, especially for seabirds and yet this
volume contains over 650 generally superb shots, each
carefully annotated to pick out the key identification
features. Just about every seabird that has ever occurred
in European waters has been included. (making this
book equally valuable to birders on the East coast
of America.) The authors are experts in their field
and they have included a wealth of new information.

The Sibley Guide to Birds
(Audubon Society Nature Guides Ser.)
David Allen Sibley: Buy from
Amazon.com
or Amazon.co.uk
- David Sibley's new field guide
to the birds of North America renders all the existing
guides obsolete at one stroke. The book itself is
beautifully produced and crafted - the sort of book
that gives pleasure just in the handling of it.
