A guide to the nests and eggs of those Australian Birds that are known to breed in Australia and its offshore islands. First published in 1980 this latest edition is a thorough reference to nest & egg identification. Shape, size, colour, number of eggs in a clutch - all help identify the bird to which the eggs belong. This title carries a strong message to respect the environment that is being explored & to leave the eggs & nests undisturbed.

There is a lot more to bird watching than the simple enjoyment that the birds can give. The freedom and pleasure of being out in the bush, away from all the pressures of life is just as enjoyable and rewarding. Leave only footprints behind you and always remember to respect the habitat and leave your campsite the way you found it.
