Shorebirds of Australia brings together the latest information about the
evolution, ecology and behaviour of shorebirds and how they are distributed in
Australia. Complete with colour photographs and up-to-date distribution maps, it
provides descriptions and tips to assist with the identification of all species
of shorebird in Australia, which comprise about 10 per cent of Australia's total
avifauna. In addition to information about their habitats, the most significant
threats to their existence are mentioned, as well as actions in place to help
conserve these birds. The book is a valuable reference for a broad range of
people, from birdwatchers and field naturalists to professional ornithologists
and land managers entrusted with the responsibility of protecting Australia's
natural resources, especially its wetlands and coastal regions. Winner of the
2008 Whitley Award for Field Guide.
