The Birds of Islay. Including where and when to find them. By Malcolm Ogilvie. Illustrated by Carol Ogilvie
Third, enlarged and fully revised, edition (published in 2003) of this popular guide, which first appeared in 1992. Expanded to 80 pages, it contains a complete systematic list of all 277 species and five identifiable subspecies seen on the island to the end of 2002. Status information for each species includes the most important areas and times of year, as well as an indication of numbers present, whether breeding, passage or wintering. Introductory chapters describe the different habitats on the island together with the top ten bird-watching locations. As a new feature, the booklet includes checklists of mammals, reptiles and amphibians, butterflies, dragonflies and wild flowers.
