Description

Enjoy this second edition of "Hawaiian Birdlife" by Andrew J. Berger. "Hawaiian Birdlife" has been the definitive work on Hawaiian birds since the publication of the first edition in 1972. Berger traces the known history of the native birds (since Captain Cook's arrival in 1778) and chronicles the extinction of many species. Each living species is discussed in detail, including it ecology and feeding and breeding behavior. This book encompasses all aspects of birdlife in Hawai'i, with emphasis on habits, biological relationships with the environment, and the place of birds in the Hawaiian ecosystems, as well as their prospects for survival.


This hardcover copy is in good condition, despite some minor imperfections.
