Field Guide to Birds of the Indian Subcontinent (Helm Field Guides): Second Edition

With a wide range of habitats and a dazzling and diverse avifauna, the Indian subcontinent is one of the world's greatest birding hotspots. This second edition of Carol Inskipp, Tim Inskipp and Richard Grimmet's ground-breaking work is a comprehensive field guide to the region, covering all species known to occur in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and the Maldives.
Fully revised and updated, the book has detailed plates with concise identification text opposite, complete with accurate range maps.
Peerless in the scope of its coverage yet still portable enough for field use, Birds of the Indian Subcontinent is an essential companion for any birdwatcher tackling the mountains, the rain forests, the plains, wetlands or deserts of this magical region.
