Sasol Birds of Prey of Africa and Its Islands by Alan C. Kemp,Meg Kemp Pdf

This guide offers the best of both worlds in its presentation of birds in both photographic and illustrative form. Each raptor species is afforded one double-page spread, allowing for extensive textual and illustrative coverage. The text focuses on bird identification, first isolating the key points necessary for identifying a species, and then discussing salient features of the adult, sub-adult and juvenile. The bird is described at perch and in flight, and any distinctive behaviour is highlighted. Current distribution, habitat and status are discussed, and finally similar species. The illustrative content, by means of carefully selected photographs from top-ranking wildlife photographers and illustrations by renowned bird artist Peter Hayman, depicts all kinds of plumage relevant to identification (male, female and immature) as well as in-flight shots to help distinguish the often confusing and similar wing patterns of this group of birds.
