Revue de presse :

Wildlife rehabilitators across the nation are probably as pleased as I am to see this book now available... there are tips that may be new even to those with a lot of experience in avian hand–rearing. The depth of detail for each species is complete enough that this book could serve as a sole reference text for a rehabilitator. Any facility that sees and raises many types of birds needs to have this book. I strongly recommend this for rehabilitators and veterinarians who deal with many types of avian patients. – Exotic DVM Magazine

What a joy it is to have this remarkable resource at my fingertips. Time after time and bird after baby bird, you have come to my rescue. New orphan? No problem! All the pertinent information is there for the neophyte and the old pro alike. I can t recommend Hand Rearing Birds enough. – Sea Biscuit Wildlife Shelter, August 2008
