Recensioner i media

The layout of a succinct text on the left is easy to read and covers plumage, voice and distribution, and is accompanied by a colour map. The plates on the right combine 4–5 species (all facing left) and are very clear. To my eye, they are more realistic than those in the SASOL guide.
