How to Birdwatch is an essential, information-packed introduction to watching birds. This attractive guide is perfect both for the budding birdwatcher keen to get started and the more practiced birder, who simply wants to improve his or her birding skills. There is a vast array of field guides and equipment available, but very little information on the fundamental principles of how and where to start. This illustrated guide, written in a clear and jargon-free style, will provide that all important experienced instruction needed to understand and get the most out of watching birds. Stephen Moss, a keen birder from a very early age, guides you through everything you need to know to get your hobby up and running. This book gives clear and practical advice, including: choosing the right field guide: binoculars and clothing: learning vital field techniques: how to take field notes; identification problems and pitfalls; and where to go birdwatching, whether locally or farther afield. Full of humorous anecdotes and enthusiasm for the subject, this book is not only a great read for the aspiring birdwatcher, but more importantly, an indispensable reference tool for anyone new to this increasingly popular hobby.
