Where To Watch Birds in Somerset, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire cover

The ultimate resource for birders visiting the ornithologically rich counties of Somerset, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire.

These countries are among Britain's finest in terms of habitat diversity, and their avifaunas are comparatively rich as a result.

Much has changed in the region since the previous edition of this book – the famous Avalon marshes, for example, have become one of Britain's finest hotspots for wetland birds, for example – but this brand-new fourth edition offers a completely updated review of all the major sites, and many more lesser known ones, with new text and fully revised maps throughout.

Where to Watch Birds in Somerset, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire is indispensable for any birder looking to head out into this ornithologically special corner of England.

All three counties' best birding spots get excellent coverage, with detailed descriptions of each site... There's lots of practical information as well as birding content. There are clear but very useful maps, too, making it an invaluable resource for anyone birdwatching in these counties. -- Matt Merritt * Bird Watching *
Ken Hall's long experience and wealth of knowledge make him the ideal guide. -- Stephen Moss * Birdwatch *
