Status of Birds in Britain and Ireland

The combined British and Irish list is close to 600, with several new bird species added each year. This authoritative reference assesses in detail the status and distribution of every species on the British and Irish lists for the first time since 1971. Importantly, it also covers each subspecies known to have occurred on the islands of Britain. The book includes a 32 page colour section illustrating some of the species and habitats representative of the British Isles. This book is the perfect reference for every birder and ornithologist interested in the birds of Britain and Ireland.
