"As with other Beaufoypocket guides, the photography is excellent. Look outfor the shot of the Himalayan Monal, but also for theSatyr Tragopan, the Blue-bearded Bee-eater Blackrumped Flameback and Gould’s Sunbird....Thoroughly recommended"(Richard Sale in IBIS, International Journal of Avian Science 2024)
