Birds

Here in one volume is a synopsis of the diversity of all birds. Published in 2015, between the two volumes of the HBW and BirdLife International Illustrated Checklist of the Birds of the World, this volume distills the voluminous detail of the 17-volume Handbook of Birds of the World into a single book.

Un certain nombre d'ossements d'oiseaux, recueillis dans les gisements de phosphorite du Quercy, ont déjà été examinés. Ce livre regarde ces os plus loin.

Une avifaune régionale offre au chercheur des sujets d'étude d'une remarquable ampleur ; mais la seule détermination des types qui peuvent être capturés dans la zone donnée, qu'ils y soient sédentaires, de passage où erratiques, comportent déjà des connaissances très étendues dont peu de spécialistes peuvent se prévaloir.

This book contains not only information about the organisation "Nederlandsche vereeniging tot bescherming van vogels" but also articles about birds and topics connected to birds.

This book essays to epitomise in part the experiences of a lifetime devoted to the direct study of nature in her wilder aspects or, perhaps better expressed, in her wildest forms. The author's main objective has consistently lain in the direction of understanding those reclusive types of creation which most bitterly resent human intrusion on their privacy, or those whose remote and inhospitable haunts are ever the least congenial in our comfort-loving age.

How to recognise wild birds. 

This booklet discusses the Bird & tree scheme of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds.

There are modest sanctuaries within the reach of many bird-lovers, proven harbours of refuge for wild winged things and all who own a garden may in some degree own these.
