Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a thorough examination of the eggs of the 475 bird species that can be found in the British Isles, including geographical races or sub-species where trinomials are used. The title's focus is on the categorization and nomenclature of the British Ornithologists Union, but it also draws on a variety of other academic sources and benefits from the author's forty years of field observations and extensive ornithological studies. The author explains that determining a bird's claim to British residency can be subjective and that the number of species accepted by various committees has ranged from 376 to 475 over the past century. He discusses the influence of climate change on migratory patterns and highlights the challenges of monitoring and classifying bird populations that are highly mobile. The author emphasizes the importance of bird protection and traces the history of bird protection legislation in Britain from 1870 to the present day. He highlights the work of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds and other organizations in promoting awareness and safeguarding bird populations. The book includes a detailed section on bird identification, including information on plumage, measurements, and other physical characteristics. This section is illustrated with accurate color plates and black and white photographs that provide valuable visual aids for birdwatchers. The author also discusses the significance of bird ringing or marking in studying migration patterns and population dynamics. He explains that, while ringing has provided valuable data, it is important to recognize that visible migration is not always representative of normal migration patterns, as birds often undertake long-distance travel at high altitudes or under adverse weather conditions. The author concludes that this book offers a comprehensive guide to the identification and classification of British bird eggs, providing valuable insights into the diversity and behaviors of these fascinating creatures. The book serves as an invaluable resource for ornithologists, birdwatchers, and anyone interested in the natural world.
