Summary The Pizzey & Knight regional birding guides are easy to use, handy and portable field guides for beginner and experienced birdwatchers alike. Designed to complement Australia's best-selling THE FIELD GUIDE TO THE BIRDS OF AUSTRALIA, now in its 9th edition, each regional guide includes every bird found within the region, organized by the environments they are most likely to be seen in, and all beautifully illustrated by Frank Knight. Concise text highlights the key features of every species and an illustrated index helps to find your bird quickly. Accompanied by an introduction to the region's habitats, these guides are an essential companion for anyone out in the field and wanting to become more familiar with Australia's natural world. Books in the regional field guide series are: South East Coast & Ranges - Greater Sydney to Greater Melbourne from the Great Dividing Range to the coast, and Tasmania, including adjacent seas and islands. Mallee to Limestone Coast - All of Western Victoria west to Greater Adelaide, and north to Broken Hill in NSW Central East Coast and Ranges - From Newcastle (NSW) in the south to Gladstone (Qld) in the north. Red Centre to the Top End - All of the Northern Territory and adjacent seas. (The book is also relevant to areas immediately adjacent to NT in Western Australia such as the Kunnanurra region which is a key visitor destination, and national parks along the border in Qld)
