‎Finding birds around The World‎

‎<p><strong> </strong><p><em><strong>This is the first world travel guide for birders. From Boston to Bahrain Machupicchu to Mount Kinabalu the best birding spots in the world are described for the first time in a single volume. Finding Birds Around the World tells you where to base where to find birds what species you can expect to see how common or rare they are what forms of transportation are available what roads to take what sights shouldn't be missed and what to do when you're not birding. Finding Birds shows you where to find more than half of all bird species in the world.</strong></em></p><p><em><strong>This book describes 111 areas—cities and refuges Arctic tundra and tropical jungle—all the best and most accessible localities in each of the world's major ecosystems. A map and a checklist of species are provided for each of the 111 places. The map shows all the best birding spots and the checklist includes status elevational and seasonal symbols. In addition the book's taxonomic index will prove invaluable to the serious birder: It cross-references all the names of each species described in the book making it easy to use local field guides and the alphabetical key following the taxonomic index makes it readily accessible to the reader.</strong></em></p><em><p><p><em><p><strong>PETER ALDEN of Concord Massachusetts is one of the most intensively travelled ornithologists in the world.
