501 Birds of Gauteng

(2 customer reviews)

R60.00

Checklist of 501 Birds of Gauteng celebrates the species that richly populate the diverse habitats of South Africa’s smallest province. Gauteng, despite the urban congestion that is widely prevalent, is a bird-watching paradise. Birds of Gauteng is organised alphabetically by genus, is attractively presented in bright colours, and includes our unique cross-referencing table that enables users to pinpoint a species by either its ‘old’ or its ‘new’ name: Plover or Lapwing, Francolin or Spurfowl, Thick-knee or Dikkop, and many others that can be similarly confusing.

Orders of ten or more checklists will qualify for free courier delivery.

    Absolutely fantastic. What an excellent idea!

  2. Megan –

    A brilliant product, celebrating our rich Gauteng bird life! Johnnesburg is one of the world’s largest man-made forests, with a symphony of bird song, and we’re loving recording all this activity in our Wordsmith’s Nature Checklists.
