The Birdwatcher's Yearbook 2013

For 33 consecutive years, The Birdwatcher's Yearbook has been an essential companion for those with a more than passing interest in birds and every piece of information is checked and updated to ensure each new edition is relevant to the needs of all those who watch birds, either as a hobby or professionally - and it is all conveniently packed into a 328-page pocket-sized book for use in the field or at home.

3) A diary element for readers to record their own personal records;

4) National tide-table information through to April 2014;

5) A birding events calendar for 2013;

6) An updated survey of the most useful birding websites;
