- Book Synopsis
- Discover the diverse birdlife of Tanzania's Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Conservation Area with this visually stunning guide. More than 300 commonly seen bird species are described in concise, engaging prose, highlighting their main characteristics. The text is accompanied by excellent full-colour photographs. Viewing notes, including tips about where and when birds are best observed, are given throughout. For ease of use, the book is categorized into six sections: ground-dwelling, bush and woodland, nocturnal, waterbirds, birds of prey, and birds of the air. A brief introduction presents the key features of each wildlife sanctuary and the habitats that shelter the birds. The Serengeti and Ngorongoro Conservation Area, a UNESCO World Heritage site, are two of the world's most popular safari destinations, renowned for the annual migration of over 1.5 million wildebeest and thousands of zebra.
