Description

First published in 1980, this 2004 edition is a thorough reference guide to nest and egg identification, with all new colour plates and much additional material. Shape, size, colour, number of eggs in a clutch - all help identify the bird to which the eggs belong. This book carries a strong message to respect the environment that is being explored and to leave the eggs and nests undisturbed. It is therefore a way for birdwatchers and ornithologists to gain a greater insight into Australian birds without actually having to get close to nests. This volume is a facsimile re-issue of the 2004 edition.

Gordon Beruldsen was a respected Australian ornithologist and a leading expert on Australian birds’ nests and eggs. He wrote several books on Australian birds in the 1970s culminating with A Field Guide to Nests and Eggs of Australian Birds in 1980 which he then updated and re-published in 2004. He died in 2007
