The Birds of Sulawesi (Images of Asia)

The birds of Sulawesi are unique. In fact, nearly 100 species are found nowhere else in the world, making this area a magnet for bird-watchers. This is the first illustrated book for birds of Sulawesi, providing a thorough introduction for professional and amateur ornithologists. Non-technical descriptions and 142 color illustrations enable readers to identify the most representative birds of the region, and they familiarize the reader with the full variety of birds, their distinguishing features and behavior, and habitat. An appendix lists over 270 resident land birds found in different parts of the Sulawesi faunal region.
