Book Description

January 5, 2012 Helm Field Guides
This new field guide covers The Gambia, a country which is very popular with a large number of birders and tourists, and the whole of neighbouring Senegal. This fascinating region shelters many Western Palearctic migrants from September to April, as well as a significant list of resident West African birds. The stunning colour plates depict more than 680 species, covering almost every distinct plumage and race. The authoritative text highlights the key features needed to identify each species in the field, and accurate up-to-date maps are provided for every species. This comprehensive guide is an essential companion for anyone visiting The Gambia and Senegal.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant and essential if you're going to West Africa, May 26, 2011
The Gambia and Senegal are packed with a myriad of beautiful, unusual and easily watched bird, a number of which migrate to europe in our summers. I'm so glad that we had this field guide when we visited espeically as we were staying in the mangroves at Makasutu Wildlife forest reserve. We made good use of it, marking all the many birds we spotted, often while we were just having breakfast sitting by the river. An excellent resource.
