This is in an depth study of the birds. Recommended if you want to know more than the obvious basics. The pictures are large and colourful. Educating and entertaining.

It was published in 1990 so it lacks recent information on conservation and the increasing perils faced by climate change but it is a perfect record of the natural history of prey birds as well as a complete record of all that happened to that date.

Read and learn.
