Inspired by the RSPB's learnbirding.com website this great new book will launch beginner birders of all ages into the world of birds & birdwatching. The book has been split into six sections which cover: principles of identification & tips on making notes & recording; birdwatching equipment & field skills; how birds are built how they work & where they come from; behaviour including breeding feeding migration & adaptation; bird habitats & distribution; how to help wild birds in your garden & beyond current threats to birds & how to get involved in conservation.
