| book description |

This captivating and informative book focuses on the coastal and terrestrial bird species most at risk within South Africa, Lesotho and Eswatini. Presented in an elegant large format, Birds on the Brink highlights the beauty, unique traits and vulnerabilities of these birds, while emphasising the human-induced threats, such as habitat loss, climate change, energy infrastructure and competition for resources. Personal accounts from scientists, conservationists and guides on the front lines offer insight into the science, skill and dedication required to safeguard these species. The birds featured are not merely fascinating creatures â€“ they act as sentinels of biodiversity, whose decline signals concerning ecological shifts. A valuable resource for birders, students, educators, conservationists and anyone who cares about the future of our planet, Birds on the Brink is both an enduring record and a call for conservation action at this tenuous moment in time. It is a reminder that while the challenges are immense, so too is our capacity for change.
