Buy from Amazon.com
or Amazon.co.uk
- If your going to this region you must
buy this book. It is a great break through. Comprehensive
and complete, it eliminates the need to carry too many books
in the field: we know how important that is! The text is
well written by experts, and many of the plates are fantastic;
those by John Gale especially stand out; just dream about
those raptors! Birds of the Middle East" is the first
comprehensive field guide dealing exclusively with the birds
of this region. It covers most of the species, likely to
be seen in the area

Where to watch birds in Asia
Wheatley, Nigel: Buy from Amazon.com
or Amazon.co.uk
-
This guide to birdwatching in Asia
deals with over 250 sites in detail, and more in passing,
from Turkey to Thailand and India to Indonesia. It is
designed as much for pre-planning birding trips as for
use in the country or countries on the itinerary. The
countries are dealt with alphabetically and after a general
introduction, there are site details, which include a
list of birds to be seen, organized under the headings
"Endemics", "Specialities" and "Others";
a list of "Other Wildlife" is also included
where there is something of particular interest.
