Many of its species are rainforest specialists, but such a large island also has widely different habitats attracting a surprisingly wide range of avian visitors.

This new edition is fully updated with all the latest names and recently recognised species.

Each description is supported by a colour photograph taken where possible in the snake's natural Indian habitat.

Whether you own several acres of garden in the remote countryside or a window-box in an urban area, observing the behaviour of garden birds, from acrobatic tits to blackbirds in full song, can be an intensely rewarding pastime.

Written in a personal and encouraging style, with wonderful photographs and colour artwork, Garden Bird Behaviour is as enjoyable to read as it is informative. The emphasis is on observing the birds that frequent your garden and taking time to spot the different characteristics of each species as they feed, interact or raise their young, in order to gradually build up a comprehensive understanding of their behaviour.
