Wetland birds: habitat, resources and conservation implications.
Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1999. Small quarto, black and white photographs, other illustrations, softcover.
Wetland birds are excellent indicators of water quality and measures of biodiversity. But how do they use wetland habitats, and how can we best conserve and maintain them for the future? Here, Milton Weller describes the ecology of wetland birds by identifying patterns of habitat use and typical bird communities that result from the use of resources such as food, cover and breeding sites. He integrates basic and practical information on bird/habitat relationships for students, researchers, landowners, managers and keen birders alike.
