First published in 1980, this is the definitive and most respected guide to Australian bird identification. It combines a depth and breadth of knowledge with beautiful, full-colour illustrations by Frank Knight. In this fully updated 9th edition, species entries have been re-ordered and updated to reflect the new taxonomy, and the book has been expanded to include eighteen new species as well as a new section on vagrant species.
It also features new information on bird family groups, more than 750 distribution maps based on the most recent bird atlas data, as well as a new Quick Find Index, to assist with quick identification of birds in the field.
