  • Packed with useful information.

    Had the first edition of this book and have found the content really useful over the years. When I learnt that this new version had been brought out, there was no hesitation on buying it.

  • It is not complete. No Fieldfare, for instance.

    I was expecting a good field guide. This is definitely not that. Find a Robert's book of Birds of South Africa (Ed 6 or 7), and then the shortfall will become plain.

  • A classic birding book enabling the differentiation of confusable species

    Very good value second hand purchase of a classic birding book which is not easy to find these days.

  • Excellent bird identification book.

    Excellent bird identification book. Especially discerning subtle differences in confusion species. For example, Gulls, which all look alike. But aren't. Very recommended for birders.
