Most complete reference of seabirds available - By: , 09 Aug 1999
This is an absolutely indispensable reference on sea birds, including penguins. It is the most complete book available on the subject & makes identifying the birds a breeze. It is truly fascinating book.

Detailed information on nearly 300 species is included. Detailed juvenile & adult descriptions are given for each bird. Facts about distribution & population are also provided.

There are over 800 photographs that are arranged from six to nine to a page. Many have never been published before. Usuallly there are at least two clear close-up photographs of each species.

Captions list the species, approximate age, & location. Photographic acknowledgments are listed in the back. The topography guide is a nice bonus. This is a beautiful & informative book for any bird lover.
