This pocket-sized, easy-to-use guide to the birds of Zambia features 425
birds likely to be seen in the region, plus a few 'specials' sought
after by birders. Concise identification text for each species contains
key ID pointers and a description of their call and favored habitat. The
accounts are accompanied by full-color photographs illustrating
diagnostic features and plumage differences (such as those between male
and female or breeding and non-breeding birds). Distribution maps are
provided for all featured species. An informative introduction comprises
a habitat map, glossary, labelled bird diagrams, and descriptions of the
habitats in Zambia and the bird species to be seen there. Light and
handy for use in the field, this will be an excellent guide for local
birders and visitors alike.
