Field Guide to New Zealand Seabirds covers the 112 seabird species that are most likely to be encountered in New Zealand waters. Each species is illustrated with photos and a distribution map, while text accounts outline key ID and behavioural features, similar species, distribution and breeding areas, and population status. Advice on the best places to see each species is also given. Since the last edition nearly 150 new images have been added to the book, showing all the different key plumages of each species - for example adult, immature and different morphs - and illustrating the all-important wing-patterns of birds in flight to aid ID.
