From Wisconsin to Wales to Windsor, amateur bird-watchers often rely on regional bird atlases in their birding forays. The Manx Bird Atlas offers a fascinating and in-depth examination of the bird population on the Isle of Man and sets a new standard in research methodology. 

A team of ornithologists used innovative survey techniques to catalog bird species in every section of the island over a five-year period. They gathered abundant data for all the species and approximate estimates for many of the bird populations, which  are augmented by full-color maps and hand-drawn images. The first comprehensive survey of Manx bird life today, this book has been long awaited by ornithologists and bird lovers everywhere.
