Ducks, geese and swans are birds within the family \u003cem\u003eAnatidae\u003c\/em\u003e. They are easiest to find near water. Dabbling ducks like Mallard and Teal are common across the country in shallow ponds, streams and canals. They feed by grazing (‘dabbling’) and up-ending into the water. By contrast, diving ducks and sawbills are more frequent at the coast, but sometimes they occur inland. Some species occur in large groups in the winter, so they are a good group to look out for when there is not much other wildlife. Many are winter visitors. During spring and autumn migration, many species may be seen flying overhead or out at sea. The Garganey is the only duck that is a summer visitor, although of course resident waterfowl can be seen all year round.

More than 50 plates are either new or have been repainted, completely or partly. Apart from this, a few new vignettes have been added. The section with vagrants has been expanded to accommodate more images and longer texts for several species. The entire text and all maps have, of course, also been revised.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book provides all the information needed to identify any species at any time of the year, covering size, habitat, range, identification and voice. Accompanying every species entry is a distribution map and illustrations showing the species in all the major plumages (male, female, immature, in flight, at rest, feeding: whatever is important).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition, each group of birds includes an introduction which covers the major problems involved in identifying or observing them: how to organise a sea watching trip, how to separate birds of prey in flight, and which duck hybrids can be confused with which main species. These and many other common birdwatching questions are answered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of definitive text, up-to-date distribution maps and superb illustrations, all in a single volume, makes this book the ultimate field guide, essential on every bookshelf and birdwatching trip.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Steven Cheshire: Sales","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57541464162686,"sku":"2026016","price":17.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/4096\/7550\/files\/CollinsBirdGuide.jpg?v=1781293971"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/4096\/7550\/collections\/Concise_Bird_Guide.jpg?v=1777247379","url":"https:\/\/wildernessbooks.co.uk\/collections\/birds.oembed?page=2","provider":"Wilderness Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
