The only field guide to every species recorded in Seychelles, covering over 250 species.
The only field guide to every species recorded in Seychelles.

This compact field guide, based on Birds of Seychelles by Adrian Skerrett, Ian Bullock and Tony Disley (Helm 2000), is the only field guide to cover all of the more than 250 species recorded in Seychelles, including all residents, migrants and vagrants.

Concise text on facing pages highlights key identification features, including habitat, distribution, status and voice. The 65 colour plates, featuring over 800 images, are based on the authors' previous work, but with the addition of many new images.

The text has been completely re-written and revised for this edition, and the plates have been re-worked to accommodate a number of new additions to the country's list. There are now 12 more plates than in the first edition.

Adrian Skerrett splits his time between the UK and Seychelles, and is a leading authority on the birds of the archipelago. He was the senior author of the previous edition of this field guide. Tony Disley is a leading bird artist whose previous books include Birds of The Gambia and Senegal, and Birds of Melanesia.
