Turkey is a popular destination for
birders and tourists, and although there has been much published on its
birds over the past 40 years, there has never been a comprehensive avifauna. The Birds of Turkey
redresses this. It contains a detailed account of every species on the
Turkish list, with a full breakdown of records and status, distribution
in Turkey, and taxonomy. There are also authoritative
introductory chapters on geography, climate,
habitats, history of ornithology and conservation.
