'The African Fish Eagle is one of the best-known and best-loved birds in Africa. Its ringing call is familiar to anyone interested in nature, and it is often common and tame, easy to observe in its natural haunts. It is therefore not surprising that, scientifically speaking, it is perhaps the best-known of all African birds of prey, and one of the six best-known in the world.
Leslie Brown has been studying Fish Eagles for more than twenty years. He has watched them from Nigeria to Ethiopia, most often in his home country of Kenya, and in Botswana. The results of this accumulated research have been collated and condensed in this book.
The book is illustrated by magnificent colour photographs and others in black and white; and by many figures, diagrams and maps which help to explain the Fish Eagle's way of life. Above all, it is a story of adventures enjoyed to the full, and as such will appeal to ordinary birdwatchers and lovers of nature as much as to the more serious-minded scientists.' - editor's note
