Wildlife of Australia Bewertungen

Wildlife of Australia is a decent introduction to the most popular and easily seen mammals, birds, reptiles and frogs of the continent, and its casually written style makes it both informative and enjoyable. Whether on a first visit to Australia, returning on a casual vacation or simply enjoying armchair birding from around the world, this guide can be a useful addition to a birder's library or field bag.--Melissa Mayntz, About.com Birding/Wild Birds We loved this pocket guide to the Wildlife of Australia and the authors and publishers are to be congratulated on producing such a high quality, genuine pocket book that is jam-packed with information. If you are heading down under, make sure you take this book with you.--Alan Davies and Ruth Miller, Biggest Twitch [T]he emphasis is on the creatures a visitor is most likely to see in or near the major tourist regions. The text is concise but detailed and the images are uniformly excellent. I was able to use them without difficulty to identify the animals, and particularly the many birds I had photographed on my various trips to Australia. This book will certainly accompany me on my next visit.--AnthonyToole, Shvoong.com If space or weight are an issue on your travels, then this would be the one guide to take with you.--Jim Morgan, Birding Frontiers Anyone who likes wildlife and is planning a visit to Australia should have this book.--FHB, Wildlife Activist The text is well written and informative giving salient points of identification and range. The photos are good quality portraits taken by 16 photographers.--Roy John, Canadian Field Naturalist While the book is obviously designed for tourists ... it may well also appeal and be useful to local beginner naturalists or children with an interest in fauna.--Judy Smith, Corella
