Résumé :
|
In 2013, The author published in French the 'Guide d'identification des oiseaux en main', which received critical acclaim from members of the specialised ornithological press. In 2016, the ‘Identification Guide to Birds in the Hand’, updated with 51 extra species, gives to all ornithologists who handle birds the essential information regarding accurate identification of species and subspecies, measurements, moult, sex and age.
The 301 species (154 non-passerines and 147 passerines) most frequently caught in Western Europe by general ringers are presented in detail. To avoid mistakes, identification is systematically compared with species of similar appearance, which represents a total of more than 550 treated species. Homogenous treatment of all species groups precludes the recurrent pitfalls of using various books with variable modes of presentation and means fewer books to carry.
