Etat : NEW. 512, 36 col plates, col photos, col distribution maps. . HB. NEW. . Second edition. Nightjars are a beautiful and charismatic group, popular with birders around the world. Some species have developed spectacular tails and wing adornments, but the majority are fairly uniform in appearance, making their identification a stern test.Written by the world's leading nightjar expert, Nigel Cleere, this new book focuses on these elusive birds alongside frogmouths, potoos, owlet-nightjars and Oilbirds. As the successor to Cleere's 2000 book Nightjars: A Guide to Nightjars and related birds, this new edition has been updated to include a comprehensive photographic selection, fully revised taxonomy and new distribution maps.The authoritative text covers physiology, behaviour, plumage and moult, foraging, breeding and taxonomy. This is accompanied by around 400 photos, encompassing as much subspecific, sexual and age-related variation as possible, and 36 plates depicting feather-by-feather detail of every species.Meticulously researched, this new Helm Identification Guide is the definitive account of the species, bringing the world of the nightjar out of the dark and into the spotlight.

Sighting a nightjar or nighthawks is an experience common to many birders, but these insectivorous and crepuscular birds are only a few representatives of an order that comprises 119 species in five families and that also includes the oilbird, potoos, frogmouths, and owlet nightjars. This authoritative book is the first to describe in detail every species of the nightjar order. In the course of his research for this book, Nigel Cleerehas examined every species except the newly described Bahian Nighthawk. The book begins with discussions on behavior, plumage and molt, structure and mechanics, fossil records, and taxonomy of nightjars. The species accounts that follow cover identification, voice, habitat, habits, food, breeding, behavior, description(including geographical variation), distribution and movements, and status. The text is accompanied by 36 superb color platesthat capture the enigmatic essenceof these wonderful birds. Line drawings are alsoprovided to highlight particular points, and maps illustrate the distribution of each species. New Haven, London.
