An up-to-date guide exploring the rich variety of avifauna in the Mediterranean.

Many of the most distinctive and bird-rich habitats border the Mediterranean in Europe, the Middle East and North Africa, making it a popular destination for both holidaymakers and birders. This area holds a rich variety of habitat types and supports a wonderful range of highly characteristic species, from the Lammergeier to the Masked Shrike.

Now in its second edition, this exquisite photographic guide provides full coverage of every species occurring in the region. Fully updated throughout, concise species accounts cover identification, similar species, voice, habitats and behaviour, status and distribution, along with revised maps and new photographs throughout.

Illustrated with more than 1,000 stunning full-colour photographs, Birds of the Mediterranean is an essential companion for any birder or naturalist visiting this popular region.

Paul Sterry is one of Britain's most experienced birders and wildlife photographers. His many previous books include Complete British Wildlife (Collins). He also runs a wildlife photographic library.
