This handy new Pocket Guide to Birds of Australia was just published in Feb of ’23.

This book is an easy-to-use and beautifully illustrated quick identification guide to all regularly occurring bird species in Australia. Carefully designed to provide key information at your fingertips to enable rapid identification, it covers more than 700 bird species that are resident or regular visitors to the Australian mainland, Tasmania, and surrounding waters accessible in a day trip by boat.

Based on the award-winning Australian Bird Guide, this convenient pocket guide features stunning images, up-to-date species descriptions, distribution maps, and quick guide comparison pages for all major groups. A typical page covers 3 species, along with illustrations and range maps. Significantly smaller in size than the huge Australian Bird Guide, and also much lighter in weight.
