- W2767630116 abstract "THE author selects twenty-four of the most oceanic of the sea-birds which breed in the British Isles, and makes them the subject of a series of thirteen short essays. There is nothing original about these essays—they are the result of a photographic tour made by the author in 1946 around the principal accessible islands and coast sites, and in one brief summer of bad weather the author makes no claim to having discovered any new facts. Yet he has managed to convey to the reader something of the charm of the islands and their avian inhabitants. He has drawn, with acknowledgments, upon the original observations published by other workers; including the recently published work of American ornithologists, who made progress denied to British observers during the war years. This information is presented in a straightforward style, and in a large type that is refreshingly easy to read. Line-drawings of the heads of related species showing seasonal plumage changes are quite useful, although some are redundant because the photographs show these differences more clearly. The elementary life-history of each bird is sketched out—breeding, feeding and migration, and a note added on the derivation of the common name. British Sea Birds Written and illustrated by C. A. Gibson-Hill. Pp. 144 (48 plates). (London: H. F. and G. Witherby, Ltd., 1947.) 18s. net." @default.
