As ever, the book (‘Finding Birds in the South-west Turkey – the book’) describes the best birding sites in exceptional detail, made even clearer by my trademark maps. It has 40 pages including 19 pages of maps. It covers the best sites close to tourist resorts such as Dalyan, Fethiye, Kalkan, Bodrum, Antalya and Manavgat and several sites inland within a days drive of those areas. It includes detailed sites for Brown Fish Owl, Red-fronted Serin, White-throated Robin, Asian Crimson-winged Finch, Finsch’s Wheatear, Olive-tree Warbler, Graceful Warbler, Yellow-vented Bulbul, Kruper’s Nuthatch and many more.
