This
new field guide covers The Gambia, a country which is very popular with a large
number of birders and tourists, and the whole of neighbouring Senegal. This
fascinating region shelters many Western Palearctic migrants from September to
April, as well as a significant list of resident West African birds.
The stunning colour plates depict more than 680 species, covering almost every
distinct plumage and race. The authoritative text highlights the key features
needed to identify each species in the field, and accurate up-to-date maps are
provided for every species. This comprehensive guide is an essential companion
for anyone visiting The Gambia and Senegal.
