Description:
In this sumptuous coffee table book, the John Voelcker Bird Book Fund has updated, expanded and revisited this captivating group of nectar-feeding birds.
In collaboration with acclaimed illustrator Gail Darroll, Roberts presents accounts for all 23 species, including the latest distribution maps generated from SABAP2 data.
Co-authored by professional ornithologist and sunbird researcher Dr Mark Brown and renowned Robert’s artist and Trustee Ingrid Weiersbye, this book is written in an easily accessible style. Here, a comprehensive species account including identifying features, food plants and habitat preferences, is provided for each sunbird and sugarbird in the sub-region. These are accompanied by extraordinary paintings, as well as selected photographs that highlight plumage variation and behaviour.
