Field Guide to Birds of Greater Southern Africa

The layout of a succinct text on the left is easy to read and covers plumage, voice and distribution, and is accompanied by a colour map. The plates on the right combine 4–5 species (all facing left) and are very clear. To my eye, they are more realistic than those in the SASOL guide. * Birdguides *
Without doubt, Birds of Greater Southern Africa will surely become the go-to field guide for anyone visiting any of the countries it includes. * Frank Lambert *
Modern field guides are almost without exception of outstanding quality and Birds of Greater Southern Africa does not buck the trend. It is well laid out, filled with information, and is authored by people with a long and distinguished association with the birds of the region. It is especially appealing that it covers Greater Southern Africa, encompassing the countries housing exceptional avian richness in the region. * Travels with Birds *
“Classic” southern Africa has a long history of good field guides and so birders visiting the southern half of Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, Eswatini or Lesotho are spoiled for choice. The under-birded but excitingly species-rich south-east African region encompassing the northern half of Mozambique, Malawi and Zambia has been begging for a field guide for decades. And here it is. This is an excellent book. * Chris Lotz, Birding Ecotours *
