This book contains a selection from the best of the large number of photographs taken by the authors in the course of their study of bird life, and is produced in response to numerous requests from those who have seen some of the pictures projected on the screen in the course of Lantern lectures. Several of the country's rarest and most spectacular birds or portrayed as well as many of those that are more familiar, and the pictures represent the results of bird watching from the north of Scotland to the southern counties of England and from the coast of East Anglia to the mountains of Wales.
