Painstakingly researched, passionately written, and beautifully
illustrated, this is the definitive birding guide.
With stunningly photographed entries, 100 Birds to See in Your
Lifetime offers a treasure trove of information on the world's most
unusual, obscure, beautiful, and sought-after species. Each entry
describes the natural history and significance of the featured species,
with summaries that include:
- Size (and Wingspan, where applicable)
- Distribution, Habitat, and Classification
- Population & Conservation status
- And the reason for inclusion.
With the contents fiercely debated by two renowned birding authors, this
wish list includes endangered species; birds with exceptional plumage or
behavior; and still others that already have a legendary status, such as
the dancing Redcrowned Crane and the spectacular Gyr Falcon.
