Shorebirds, or waders, are a very popular group of birds among birders of all standards, though their identification is often a challenge. Covering all the species of the northern hemisphere, this new photographic guide provides all the information a birder will need at a glance. Lavishly illustrated with colour photography by the author, this book focuses on specific and subspecific separation and on ageing to provide a complete identification resource.
