Compact Field Guide to Australian Birds – 3rd Edition | Michael Morcombe
A COMPLETE GUIDE TO AUSTRALIAN BIRDS, DESIGNED TO COME INTO THE FIELD WITH YOU.
Written and illustrated by respected Australian birding expert Michael Morcombe, this compact field guide brings more than 800 Australian bird species together in one portable reference.
With over 3,000 detailed illustrations, distribution maps and an easy-to-navigate Quickfind system, it helps birders identify the birds they encounter, from familiar locals to those wonderfully puzzling sightings that keep everyone looking through their binoculars.
We chose this guide because it is comprehensive, practical and created specifically for Australian birdlife. Compact enough for your field bag and detailed enough to become a trusted birding companion, it is equally suited to newer birders and those with years of sightings behind them.
