Birds of Spain, Paperback

Pocket-sized and portable, Birds of Spain is the perfect companion for any wildlife-watching tourist or traveler.

From rollers to bee-eaters, bustards and coursers to larks, nightjars, buntings, and wallcreepers, Spain is recognized as one of Europe's top destinations for birdwatching. This new photographic guide for general wildlife-watchers by naturalist James Lowen and Spanish photographer Carlos Gonzalez covers the 300 birds most likely to be seen on any visit to the country, with detailed text and superb photography, selected to highlight key identification criteria.

James Lowen is an experienced naturalist and author whose previous books include 100 Days Wild (Bradt) and, for Bloomsbury, RSPB books on Hedgehogs and Badgers. Carlos Bocos Gonzalez is one of Spain's top bird photographers, and one of the lead photographers on Helm's forthcoming defiinitive work, Handbook of Western Palearctic Birds.
