Description
The ultimate field guide to the birds of the Emirates.
The United Arab Emirates is an increasingly popular birding destination. Not only does it have an excellent tourist infrastructure, but it also hosts a range of species high on the wishlist of any Western Palearctic birder, such as Pharaoh Eagle Owl, Ménétries's Warbler, Crab Plover and the legendarily elusive Grey Hypocolius, along with a suite of scarce wheatears, abundant migrants in the winter, and large numbers of wintering waders, terns and gulls.
This new edition of the best field guide to the Emirates has been completely revised by Oscar Campbell, Richard Porter and Abdulrahman Al-Sirhan, with new maps for all regularly occurring birds in the region along with improved plates and a Gulf-centric text to help any visiting birder make the most of their trip.
Birds of the United Arab Emirates is the last word in bird identification in this small but ornithologically rich strip of the Arabian peninsula, and an essential companion for the wildlife-friendly visitor.
