Collins Bird Guide

Product Information

It would be a 5 Star app if it also offered these things which some other (even free) bird listing apps have. Produced with the RSPB, Birds of Britain and Europe is a stunning, illustrated guide to Europe's bird species. The text also covers behaviour, breeding biology, population, status, longevity and any other interesting facts about the species concerned.

Er enthält einführend jeweils zu Beginn der Kapitel zu den einzelnen Vogelfamilien kurze, aber prägnante Erläuterungen zur Biologie und zur Ökologie sowie zum Verhalten der zur Familie gehörenden Vogelarten. There are the new splits such as Cabot's and Sandwich Tern, three Subalpine Warblers, three Lesser Whitethroats and three Stonechat taxa.Lars Svensson has said that he prefers a cautious approach when it comes to recognising taxonomic changes (see Birdwatch 365: 30-33) and this is evident within. It covers more than 170 species, which are illustrated with superb full-colour artworks that show - where relevant - variations in plumage, for example for male, female and juvenile birds, and breeding and non-breeding birds. Der folgende Bestimmungsteil ist entsprechend der aktuell geltenden Systematik der Vögel gegliedert. Beautiful, in-focus scenes present birds in various plumages and in lifelike poses set in identifiable British and Irish habitats. This guide covers all but a few of the Western Palearctic's breeding birds, and includes information on all regularly encountered vagrants.

Each ID challenge is presented in a concise and accessible form with accompanying photos, illustrations, and sonograms where appropriate. Also included is a foldout insert illustrating such topics as variations in plumage in flying birds of different species. A unique spotter's guide for the first-time birdwatcher It is not always easy for the amateur birdwatcher to correctly identify a bird from the glimpse that is seen as it flies past, but you do notice and remember the bird's colour. As well as the optional video library, the app incorporates British Trust for Ornithology/BirdWatch Ireland/Scottish Ornithologists' Club Bird Atlas 2007–11 mapping data as an in-app purchase, providing the most comprehensive location mapping of any bird guide app.

It complements Lars Svensson's Identification Guide to European Passerines, and is an invaluable reference for Bird Ringers, keen birders and feather enthusiasts, alike.
