Condición: NEW. 8, col illus, col photos. . Chart. NEW. . This is a new field guide designed for real-world raptor watching.* Features all 16 breeding day-flying species in Britain and Ireland* Silhouettes show each species in flight and when perched* Enables easy comparison between confusable speciesRaptors are one of the most…difficult groups of birds to identify with confidence. Sometimes all you can see are brief glimpses of a distant bird in flight. So unfortunately, traditional bird identification guides based on close-up views of the plumage are not very practical.WildID Raptors is a practical, portable and weather-proof alternative. It focuses on the features you are likely to see, such as size, flight action, wing angle and wing-to-tail ratio.As well as beautiful colour paintings of each species, the guide features silhouettes of each bird soaring, gliding and perching, arranged for easy comparison between similar-looking species. Concise notes outline the key identification characters and habitat for each raptor species. Since behaviour is often diagnostic, the authors include useful hints on flight action and where the bird sits.All three authors and illustrators are experienced birders and field leaders. The guide is based on identification principles that have been field-tested by many users. [9781917154079].

Condición: NEW. 12, col illus. . Chart. NEW. . WildID Waders of Britain and Ireland guide is for beginners and improvers. It includes 28 wader species known to occur in Britain and Ireland on a regular basis. Waders are an interesting group of birds to look for and many species can be seen all year round. They are most often fou…nd by the edge of water and in open areas, near the coast and inland.Many wader identification resources are not very practical for outdoor use, as they are based upon plumage and assume a good view of the bird. This laminated fold-out guide helps to overcome these limitations.It includes a simple identification key, bird silhouettes, brief species notes and stunning artwork. The illustrations include both standing birds and birds in-flight. Bill length, body size and bill curvature are used to quickly narrow down the species options and there is help with difficult species pairs, such as the tricky godwits. It is ideal for 'real world' wader watching where the weather may be a challenge and views of birds distant. Under such conditions colour is of limited use. The identification principles used throughout the guide have been field tested over many years utilising a wide range of volunteer users.The authors are both experienced birders. The guide was produced by Stephen Docker in close consultation with Keith Offord, a field ornithologist, bird tour guide and photographer. Mike Langman is a wildlife artist renowned for his illustrations of birds.There is also free support to accompany this WildID fold-out guide. Two additional resources, Identikit and Quizlet provide the user with an opportunity to further develop their skills. Identikit is a digital, multi-access identification key that can be used alongside the WildID guide. Quizlet is an on-line flash card learning resource, perfect for practising identification before heading outdoors. All three products form an integrated suite of wader resources. [9781908819895].

"Here is a powerful selection of fiction and nonfiction mirroring the Negro experience in America. The time sequence of the book extends from the midnight of slave time to now - 11 P.M.

Before the terrifying prospects of internal strife, armed suppression and needless destruction descend fully upon us all.' - Whitney M. Young, Jr.). The changes in black and white consciousness over the years are clearly evident in this clockwise turn of fiction and events". Contributors include James Baldwin, Claude Brown, T.R.
