Vogelgids Where to Watch Birds in France | Pelagic Publishing
An introduction to France for anyone visiting with birds in mind, from casual birdwatchers checking a bird that flies over the terrace during a family holiday to addict birders who would sell their souls for a dream species or a record-breaking checklist.

The Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, with its expansive blue skies, red dunes, and sparse vegetation, provides a unique back- drop for birdwatching.
