The most updated bird ID book on the market. Beginners and experienced birdwatchers turn to this guide to identify the birds they see in their backyards and on bushwalking or birdwatching expeditions. Designed to slip easily into a pocket, backpack or glove box.

Also included is a re-organisation of the guide into broad habitats — seabirds, shore birds, inland water birds, and bush birds. This edition features updated common and scientific names, revised maps, and a new visual index to aid beginners in finding the most appropriate pages in the guide.
