Owls of the World: A Photographic Guide (Second Edition)

Owls are perhaps the most elegant and best-loved of all bird groups. Photographers spend hours waiting to capture them and birders seek them out with determination, but owls have been tough to identify - until now.

Owls of the World is the ultimate photographic resource dedicated to the identification of these charismatic birds of prey. Dozens of the world's finest photographers have contributed 750 spectacular photographs covering all of the world's 268 species of owls.

The photos are accompanied by detailed text describing:
• Identification notes
• Population status
• Food
• Accurate range maps
• Habitat
• Voice
• Distribution
• Similar species

For photographers, birders, naturalists, researchers and any fan of these birds, Owls of the World is the definitive work on species identification.
