Ediciones OMEGA
<p>This work is unusual among bird guides. Peter Harrison combines his role as author with that of illustrator to produce a guide that has become the indispensable reference work on seabirds.

The text deals with 300 species of seabirds in depth and highlights in particular the various color forms that occur within each species and looks closely at subspecies. Flight, behavior, geographic range, and look-alike species are also covered extensively. Maps show the distribution of breeding, non-breeding and migratory birds.
