About the book >.>.> The Starling Book by Chris Feare provides an in-depth examination of the European Starling, recognised as one of the most successful bird species worldwide. Throughout its history, this bird has formed a close relationship with humans and has been dispersed globally by human activities. Despite its adaptability and diverse habitats?ranging from gardens and woodlands to farms and urban environments?the Starling often faces conflict with people, leading to a complex perception of the species.The book delves into the evolutionary journey of the Starling, tracing its lineage from an arboreal, predominantly fruit-eating ancestor believed to have originated in south-east Asia, to the versatile ground-dwelling omnivore observed today. It thoroughly explores various aspects of the Starling's life, such as habitat selection, annual life cycles, behaviours including breeding, feeding, flocking, and roosting. Each of these components contributes significantly to the bird's remarkable biological success, providing valuable insights for ecologists, ethologists, conservationists, and ornithologists alike.Dr Christopher Feare, the author, brings his expertise as a Principal Scientific Officer at the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, and Food Laboratory in Surrey. His research has largely focused on the ecology and behaviour of agricultural bird pests, particularly their impact on crops and possible control measures. This background enhances the detailed analysis presented in the book, making it a significant resource for understanding the ecological dynamics of the European Starling and its interactions with human environments.

Octavo,272 pp.,32 colour plates, bookplate, fine copy in dustwrapper. The starling family contains some of the world's most successful, and some of the world's rarest, birds. Starlings and Mynas is the first comprehensive, one-volume guide to all 114 members of the family. Every species is described and illustrated, along with many distinctive subspecies. The authors have also taken the opportunity to re-examine starling classification in the light of up-to-date knowledge of the birds' ecology and behaviour. Introductory chapters outline the approach taken to the family, and give brief accounts of the birds' distribution, behaviour, ecology, breeding, moult and interactions with man. The species accounts cover all aspects of identification, together with a description of the species' ecology and behaviour. The 32 colour plates and distribution maps complete this ground-breaking study of this fascinating group of birds.

Hardback. Condición: New. A comprehensive illustrated guide to the Old World family of birds in the Helm Identification series.Starlings range from familiar species such as Common Starling and Common Myna, which are closely associated with people and have been introduced to many parts of the world, to little-known forest birds with a very restricted distribution. The family is centred on tropical Asia and tropical Africa, where two separate evolutionary radiations have occurred.This is the first monograph on the starling family, and summarises the current knowledge of all speices, with a comprehensive bibliography. Information from the avicultural literature is included since for some species nesting and other behaviour have never been observed in the field. Many starlings are highly social, some even nest in colonies, and cooperative breeding ('helpers at the nest') occurs in a number of African species highlights areas where information is lacking, particularly for those starlings whose existence is threatened by habitat destruction.The Indo-Malayan and Afro-tropical varieties are covered, along with the New World immigrants, and the text together with drawings, maps and photographs show aspects of bird behaviour, distribution and natural history.
