This highly illustrated, comprehensive and easy to use volume is a guide to a unique avifauna, the birds of the Seychelles and outlying islands in the Western Indian Ocean. The Seychelles remains one of the least disturbed island groups, and one of the last to be studied by ornithologists. Easy species identification and the tameness of the birds -- some of them among the rarest in the world -- combine to make bird-watching in the Seychelles rewarding for the novice bird-watcher and fascinating for the ornithologist. In addition to being able to put a name to a bird, this book also provides information on how the birds live, what they feed, when they breed and why there are so many great rarities. 1105 color illustrations, and 362 maps.
