Birds
of Southern Africa
by Ian Sinclair
Book Description: Birds of Southern Africa is the best and most authoritative
guide to the birds of one of the world's most fertile birding regions.
Two hundred color plates comprising over 4,000 expert illustrations help
birders to distinguish all of southern Africa's approximately 950 bird
species. The illustrations have labels highlighting diagnostic features,
and many birds are depicted in flight as well as still. Special attention
is given to plumage variation by age, sex, and season.
The informative text, written by eminent ornithologists, is fully integrated
with the color plates to facilitate use in the field. Detailed species
accounts emphasize the essential characteristics of each bird, including
information on behavior, calls, and habitat preferences.
All species names and divisions are in line with the latest recommendations
of the International Ornithological Committee, while well-known and local
common names are also included. Both beginners and advanced birders will
appreciate the regional checklist, quick reference guides, and excellent
family summaries. Up-to-date distribution maps feature dual shading to
indicate areas of low and high abundance, while cross-referencing is made
easy with color coding and a simple numbering system.
Absolutely up-to-date and both beautifully and comprehensively illustrated,
this field guide is a terrific reference as well as a superb visual record
of the rich variety of a region that is home to one-tenth of all bird species.

Birds
of Kenya and Northern Tanzania
Dale A. Zimmerman, et al
In East Africa, where Kenya alone boasts nearly 1,100 species, scarcely
more than half are figured in the most widely used field guide. Because
there has been so much guesswork by traveling birders about the hundreds
of unfigured species, a superb team has finally done something about it
and filled the gap. There will be no more guesswork.... The present volume
should be hailed not only by birders but by conservationists aware of the
urgent need for African governments to establish strong strategies to preserve
their rich natural heritage. From the foreword by Roger Tory Peterson
