'Depicted in full colour are 104 garden birds that regularly - and readily - visit us at home and sometimes, if conditions are right, make their homes in our gardens.
Geoff Lockwood's colour plates were specially commissioned for this book and make recognition both easy and pleasurable. His authoritative text amplifies the paintings by describing each bird in detail, from its haunts to its size, plumage, call, diet and nesting habits.
Garden Birds of Southern Africa has a twofold purpose: apart from the purely aesthetic appeal of its beautiful plates, the illustrations and text combine to form a simple reference work that will lead to the easy identification and better understanding of those garden birds that enrich our lives.' - editor's note
