Description:
Collins, London, 2013. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine Condition/Fine. This New Naturalist volume provides a much-anticipated overview of these fascinating birds - the first book on the natural history of British and Irish terns since 1934. Terns are small seabirds that are commonly seen along coastlines and estuaries in the summer months - their graceful flight and command of the air are among their most attractive features.Most of the five species of terns breeding in Britain and Ireland today are under intensive management, involving protection from predators, human interference, egg-collecting, recreational activities, land-use changes, and a range of issues concerning climate change, including rising sea levels and flooding of low-lying colonies.

London: Collins, 2013. First edition, 2013. Hardback. xiv, 461pp. Dust jacket in a protective sleeve. A fascinating overview of these small seabirds whose graceful flight and command of the air are among their most attractive features. Most of the five species of terns breeding in Britain & Ireland today are under intensive management, involving protection from predators, human interference, egg-collecting, land-use changes and a range of issues relating to climate change. If these protective measures were abandoned the the number of terns would inevitably decline, with the very real possibility that several species would end up on the endangered list. Drawing on extensive research, the authors focus on migrations, food and feeding ecology, as well as breeding biology and behaviour. Importantly, they highlight conservation issues and prospects, and what this means for the future of terns. Front cover designed by Robert Gillmor. Book as new and unread. Dust jacket near fine and unclipped. Quite a heavy book but no additional shipping costs to UK post codes.
