Chickadees, Tits, Nuthatches & Treecreepers

Fine hardcover. Faded spine to dust jacket. The chickadees, tits, nuthatches and treecreepers include some of the best known birds in the world. They also number among them some species so rare that they have been seen by only a handful of birdwatchers. This is the first guide to cover all of these families across the globe. The comprehensive text provides extensive information about each species, including identification, description, vocalizations, geographical distribution and variation, habits, habitats, breeding biology, and relationships. Beautifully drawn full-color plates detail all of the species, and the book includes over 100 color maps and additional line drawings.
