This is the first book created primarily for the field identification of parrots, one of the most familiar and colourful groups of birds.

From the mighty macaws to the diminutive pygmy parrots, the 350 species of parrots include cockatoos, parakeets, lovebirds, and budgerigars. Most are brightly coloured or even gaudy, but a few are drab, and some are nocturnal and flightless. Parrots, found throughout most of the warmer regions of the world, occur in greatest numbers in Australasia and South America.

This book includes 88 superb colour illustrations of every species and most identifiable subspecies of parrot, as well as range maps of their locations. It offers many firsthand insights into the ecology of each species, vocalizations, life cycle characteristics, and geographical variation.

It also provides information on the conservation status of those species of parrots that are threatened or endangered.
