Australian birds: their nests and eggs (facsimile edition).
Woodslane Press, 2021. Octavo, paperback, colour photographs.
First published in 1980, this latest edition is a thorough reference guide to nest and egg identification, with all colour plates and much additional material. Shape, size, colour, number of eggs in a clutch - all help identify the bird to which the eggs belong. This book carries a strong message to leave eggs and nests undisturbed. It is therefore a way for birdwatchers and ornithologists to gain a greater insight into Australian birds without actually having to get close to nests. This volume is a facsimile re-issue of the 2004 edition.
