RSPB Pocket Garden Birdwatch

We love watching the different birds coming into the garden. This book is very useful for information. My grandchildren like taking it out when we go for walks for spotting birds.

Great book shows loads of birds and other information. Great quality good value.

n.b. ‘Features detailed profiles of the top 40 garden birds’ The current stock images (mainly showing double-page spreads) + the 'READ SAMPLE' above give an idea of the layout. First published in 2007, the one I received is 2020 (‘4th edition/revised & updated’). From the back cover (image below refers): 🦉'The complete guide to attracting and identifying garden birds: ~ Expert advice on how to provide water, food, and nesting sites ~ Guidance on which plants to grow to create a bird-friendly environment ~ Essential tips on observing birds, including the basic equipment needed ~ Features detailed profiles of the top 40 garden birds ~ Ideal companion for the RSPB’s Big Garden Birdwatch' ooOoo Measuring just 10 cm wide x 19 cm, this was smaller than anticipated, so I am glad it was 'on sale' when I ordered! In fairness, it does state ‘POCKET’ in the title, and, if you can cope with the text size, it is indeed a handy sized reference to carry out & about. It is basically informative in what it covers and is colourfully illustrated across the 128 shiny finish pages. On the negative side, the detail is dotted around the various sections and I feel that the 4-page alphabetical index at the back could do with the main page of the relevant bird being in a bolder type. The paperback book is tightly bound, but can be persuaded to almost flatten for the best part. In any case, no wording is obscured across the spine area, in my experience.

Bought to spy out the birds in the garden. So far only Sparrows.

Good size. Great detail, reasonable price.

Perfect size, lots of information that is vital for you & all the birds you love so much 💚

Good starter book bird colours fairly true to life.

This book The Pocket Book Of British Birds is a beautiful paperback book with lots of colourful photographic illustrations of British birds and their habitats, together with descriptions of them in writing. A wonderful little or

good quality product!

Lovely book

I thought this would be a great book for identifying backyard birds here in Germany, but was pretty disappointed. It's more of an informational book than an ID book. Hard to find what you're looking for.
