New Zealand is known for its birds, and the melodic quality of their song.
Here is a selection of 60 of the most popular, important or interesting birds.



In New Zealand Bird Calls, each bird entry includes information
about habitat, distribution, appearance and behaviour of the bird, along with a
description of its calls. Each entry is illustrated with photographs from the
renowned collection of Geoff Moon, making identification easy.



Readers can click on the
relevant QR Code within the book using a smart phone and hear a 30 second clip
of that bird's song. QR Codes have become accepted by the general public over
the past few years.



New Zealand Bird Calls is
an essential guide for any beginner or bird enthusiast to enjoy in the field or
at home, and it will open up new ways to get to know birds by their calls.



This is a revised edition
of a previous book in which the sounds were available on an accompanying CD.
