Bird watching is a very interesting leisure pursuit. It's a great way to experience and learnabout nature. Before you go for a bird-watch, it's best to know the basic information of birds. This book tells you how plumage, shape of the beak, and features of feet and claws differ from species to species, and introduces breeding behaviors like how birds build nest, hatch eggs and rear their kids. Highlighted here are 30 bird species and 10 families, of which, each has its unique habitat and foraging behaviour.
