A pocket-friendly field guide to the amazing avifauna of Thailand.
Boasting a fantastic diversity of habitats, ranging from high mountain peaks to extensive mudflats, Thailand is one of the top birding destinations in Asia.
An ideal companion for any wildlife-friendly visitor to the kingdom, Birds of Thailand provides photographic coverage of 400 species that regularly occur in the region, from the Siamese Fireback to the Spoon-billed Sandpiper.
Concise text for each species includes information on identification, songs and calls, behaviour, distribution and habitat, with each photo carefully selected to guide identification. A guide to the best birdwatching sites in Thailand is also included.
Portable yet authoritative, this is the perfect birding guide for travellers and wildlife-watchers visiting this beautiful country.
