Commendable Attempt for a difficult process
25. Mai 2012
Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This is a book for birders only. Looking for different species of birds in the worlds cities is probably often more difficult than birding the Amazon or the Andes and of course much less rewarding. If you travel you often find yourself in a large city for some hours or a day and would like to capitalize on finding something unique to that local.
For example recently on a trip to Italy we had a five hour layover in Brussels, Belgium, a country I had never visited with potentially birds that I had never seen.
There is a several page account for sites to visit from Brussels and I had hoped to visit a wetland near the airport. My problem was that the directions in the book seemed fine prior to arrival in Brussels but when there made no sense and were too difficult to follow. I ended up doing what I usually do, hoping on public transport to the nearest large green space on the map and missed what may have been better sites.
The account for Rome, Italy was not much better and made it seem easy to find a particular Rock Thrush that I found out was a summer season bird rather than a full time resident.
The best aspect of the book was the sufficient coverage of birding sites in many of the worlds most visited cities. There is a lot of detail here on good sites and good birds to be seen the world over.
If this book is ever republished (and it should be) the authors should pay special attention to providing clear directions to sites. With limited time, no experience with the transit of the cities, the locations of train stations, bus stops etc. birding the cities on limited time is extremely difficult. A book like this should be key to making it easier.
