First Field Guide to Common Birds of Southern Africa

This exciting series was specially developed to teach young people - as well as beginners of all ages - about some of the rich fauna and flora around us. Presented in a simplified field-guide format, each title introduces the reader to a limited selection of common animals or plants. A short introduction to the topic is followed by straightforward identification text, distribution maps and colour photographs. These First Field Guides encourage an early interest in wildlife, and lay the groundwork for further studies in some 20 fascinating topics. The books make ideal gifts for children or uninitiated nature-lovers of all ages.
Also available in Afrikaans as Algemene voels van Suider-Afrika.
