The Complete Encyclopedia of Birds provides insight into the immense riches of the bird world. Although the 670 species included in this book represent only a fraction of living species, this selection gives a comprehensive overview of bird systematics and distribution. The individual chapters highlight the characteristics of each order and give examples of representative species living on different continents and oceanic regions. The geographical distribution is summarized under the heading for each species, just after the scientific and common name, which allows you to easily identify a given bird's habitat. In the text accompanying the photographs, you will find detailed information about the bird's way of life, nesting habits, migratory behavior, winter distribution, and any other unique characteristics of the species.
