Description: Birds of Singapore Christopher Hails and Frank Jarvis Product Overview For a relatively tiny island, with such a high ratio of urban development, Singapore contains a surprisingly large number of birds – native species as well as seasonal visitors due to its strategic position on a migration route between temperate Asia and the eastern tropics. In this classic guide, Dr Christopher Hails leads the reader to all the major birdwatching habitats in Singapore, explaining changing patterns with shifting development and nature's fascinating adaptations to urban encroachment. His scholarly insights into migration, simplified for the lay reader, are enthralling and illuminating. The illustrations have been painted by artist Frank Jarvis entirely from field sketches and, where essential, from studying skins and nests in the valued Raffles' Collection, thus offering the highest level of accuracy in both the birds' features and their behaviour. _On the 30th anniversary of its publication, Marshall Cavendish is proud to release the paperback edition of this evergreen work, whose keenly observed illustrations and explanations have yet to be surpassed._ Details Publisher : UNKNO; Illustrated edition (October 2, 2018) Language : English Paperback : 176 pages ISBN-10 : 3 ISBN-13 : 73 Item Weight : 13.3 ounces Dimensions : 6.03 x 0.54 x 8.94 inches Best Sellers Rank: #454,432 in Books (See Top 100 in Books) #821 in Outdoors & Nature Reference #835 in Bird Field Guides Quality Products Have peace of mind knowing that your order will arrive original factory sealed packaging.
