This book is the first comprehensive account of the birds of Buckinghamshire. It covers every species that has been recorded in the county to the end of 1991. Dot maps of breeding distribution are shown for most of the breeding species, and are the result of a six year survey of the county's breeding birds. Graphs of seasonal and annual occurrence are shown for many of the rarer species. Wildfowl counts are also displayed graphically. Reasons for changing populations are discussed using the results of the latest research, and give a picture of the altering conditions within the county. Introductory chapters include the history of birdwatching in Buckinghamshire from the Domesday Book to the present day, and a comprehensive account of the habitats within the county. There are tables of earliest and latest dates for migrants and a gazetteer. A number of species have been illustrated with line drawings. The five artists, using their differing styles, have produced drawings of very high quality. Size: 8vo.
