The excellent Collins Bird Guide has finally released its second edition. This book, subtitled "The Most Complete Guide to the Birds of Britain and Europe" and authored by Lars Svensson with illustrations by Killian Mullarney and Dan Zetterstrom, is widely regarded as the best European field guide ever published. No self-respecting birder can afford to be without it; whether Europe-based or not everyone with an interest in birds will benefit from it. In fact, if any BUBO Lister does not already own it they should be embarrassed! And anyone who does have it should immediately buy this update, with additional text and illustrations!
