Hi, I'm new to these forums. My husband and I are missionaries to a rural area of Limpopo province in South Africa. We wanted to be able to identify birds around here with our children. Here is a list of bird field guides I was directed to.
Roberts Bird Guide
Robert’s Bird Guide – KNP and Adjacent Lowveld
Roberts Guide to the Nests and Eggs
Roberts Geographic Variation of Southern African Birds
Newman’s Birds of Southern Africa
Sasol Birds of Southern Africa (4th edition)
LBJ’s Made Simple
Birds the Inside Story - Sasol
Southern African and Madagascar Birdfinder - Sasol
Beat About the Bush – Birds – Carnaby *This is most expensive, and I was thinking not to get this one.
Complete Photo Guide Birds of South Africa
What’s that Bird?
Nocturnal Birds of SA
Shorebirds of South Africa
Which would be best? Most thorough and accessible for children? Best for Limpopo/Gauteng/Mozambique/southern Zim region?
Thanks in advance for your help! And if you have any advice on field guides for other flora and fauna, we would appreciate it! :t:
