Written and illustrated by one of Australias most respected birding experts, Michael Morcombe, this updated guide is an essential reference for every Queensland birdwatcher and field naturalist or visitor to the state. The most comprehensive pocket field guide on Queensland birds, it features over 2,000 illustrations detailing subspecies, males, females and juveniles of the more than 600 species that can be seen in the state. The Quickfind system of colour tags gives easy reference to bird families, with locations pinpointed with distribution maps, and the unique tables at the beginning of each chapter illustrate the relative sizes of species.


<p>Michael Morcombe, a passionate bird enthusiast since high school, transitioned from bird photography to studying birds themselves, recording their behaviours and habitats. His career as a photographer and author flourished with over forty titles, including renowned works like Birds of Australia . Encountering challenges in capturing perfect shots, he honed his skills in sketching and painting birds while refining his ideas for an authoritative bird guide. His dedication culminated in the creation of the Field Guide to Australian Birds , praised for its ease of use and comprehensive coverage. Morcombes contributions earned him accolades such as the NSW Royal Zoological Society’s Whitley Award and the C.J. Dennis award.</p><br>
