This superb handbook (which has an extraordinarily detailed map of Armenia shrink-wrapped with the book) is a model of its kind, documenting all available data on birds occurring within the borders of the Republic of Armenia. The content of the book serves as an essential reference that can form the basis of a national program to effectively protect, maintain, and where possible, restore the nation's bird life. The handbook also identifies species of special concern within Armenia, covering threatened, undetermined, and extirpated species in the country, such as Black Stork, Little Bustard and White-winged Scoter. The work complements the enclosed foldout "Birds of Armenia Reference Map" and "A Field Guide to Birds of Armenia" (1997, same authors).

This review is from: Handbook of the Birds of Armenia (Hardcover)
This is a wonderful book. I was in Armenia in the summer of 2005 and loved seeing wonderful birds. I photographed many, but lost all of my pictures when my digital camera broke. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to find a book on birds of Armenia for my library collection on Armenia, but this book does it. I am not a ornithologist, but I can appreciate the lovely offerings of nature in Armenia. This book is a great take along on your trip to Armenia, an exotic and rich land. Conservationists and environmental professionals can benefit the beauty of the varied species of birds that Armenia has to offer.
