Bird Atlas 2007-2011 — save 33% before 31 July

Bird Atlas 2007-2011If you’re a birder in Britain or Ireland then chances are you already know about the upcoming publication of “Bird Atlas 2007-2011”.

The culmination of one of the most ambitious citizen science projects ever undertaken, Bird Atlas brings together data on bird populations collected by tens of thousands  of dedicated volunteers across the British Isles. It has been described by Andy Clements, Director of the BTO, as “”The most important British and Irish bird book for two decades”.

Some of the highlights of Bird Atlas 2007-2011 include

  • The most complete and comprehensive overview of bird distribution and change in Britain and Ireland
  • Over 1300 maps describe patterns of distribution, abundance and change for nearly 300 species in one hardback volume
  • Compiled from data collected by over 40,000 volunteer surveyors through timed visits, roving records and other sources, over four summers and winters
