Birds of the National Parks of South Africa by Meg and Alan Kemp, with illustrations by Thelma Campbell and Dick Findlay, is an attractive and practical field guide dedicated to the remarkable birdlife found within South Africa’s national parks. First published by C. Struik (Pty) Ltd in 1987, this well-illustrated reference introduces readers to more than 250 of the most commonly encountered bird species in parks such as the Kruger National Park and other protected conservation areas.
Featuring 49 full-colour plates, detailed species accounts, distribution maps adapted from Ian Sinclair’s renowned field guide, and concise identification notes, Birds of the National Parks of South Africa is an excellent companion for birdwatchers, wildlife enthusiasts, tourists, conservationists, and collectors of South African natural history books. The beautiful illustrations by Thelma Campbell and Dick Findlay accurately capture the distinctive characteristics of each species, making field identification both enjoyable and reliable.
Although compact enough to accompany you on safari, the guide provides valuable information on habitat, behaviour, and key identification features, making it suitable for beginners as well as experienced birders. Birds of the National Parks of South Africa also serves as a nostalgic piece of South African ornithological publishing from the late twentieth century and remains a useful reference for anyone interested in the country’s rich avian diversity.
A desirable addition to any collection of bird books, African wildlife literature, or conservation references, this volume continues to be appreciated for its clear layout, quality artwork, and practical approach to identifying birds encountered in South Africa’s national parks.
