A Naturalist's Guide to the Birds of Nepal cover

A Naturalist's Guide to the Birds of Nepal is an introductory photographic identification guide to 280 bird species commonly seen in Nepal. High-quality photographs from some of India's top nature photographers are accompanied by detailed species descriptions, which include nomenclature, size, distribution, habits and habitat. The user-friendly introduction covers geography and climate, vegetation and opportunities for naturalists. Also included is an all-important checklist of all of the birds of Nepal encompassing, for each species, its common and scientific name as well as its vernacular name, its status in each state as well as its global IUCN status.

"As with other Beaufoy pocket guides, the photography is excellent. Look out for the shot of the Himalayan Monal, but also for the Satyr Tragopan, the Blue-bearded Bee-eater Blackrumped Flameback and Gould’s Sunbird....Thoroughly recommended"
(Richard Sale in IBIS, International Journal of Avian Science 2024)
