| book description |

The ultimate field guide to the birds of the Middle East, an indispensable companion for any traveller to the region The Middle East – the region stretching from Cyprus and the Levant to Iran, including Turkey and the Arabian Peninsula, plus Socotra – has a wonderfully broad and diverse avifauna, featuring a host of wintering and passage migrants, enigmatic breeders, and even a few endemics that occur nowhere else. This authoritative book covers more than 895 species recorded in the Middle East, including details of all regular visitors and breeding species, from the Purple Sunbird and Syrian Serin to the Northern Bald Ibis, Persian Shearwater and Brown Fish Owl. Featuring 180 stunning colour plates by three of the world’s leading bird illustrators, this practical guide also includes concise species accounts describing key identification features, status, range, habitat and voice with accurate distribution maps for each species. Written by three leading lights in regional ornithology and conservation and now in its third edition, this field guide is an essential reference for any birder living in or visiting the Middle East.
