The African Fish Eagle by Leslie Brown
The African Fish Eagle is one of the best-known and best-loved birds in Africa. Its ringing call is familiar to anyone interested in nature, and it is often common and tame, easy to observe in its natural haunts. It is therefore not surprising that, scientifically speaking, it is perhaps the best-known of all African birds of prey, and one of the six best-known in the world.
Leslie Brown has been studying Fish Eagles for more than twenty years. He has watched them from Nigeria to Ethiopia, most often in his home country of Kenya, and in Botswana. The results of this accumulated research have been collated and condensed in this book. In love with his subject, Leslie Brown writes in a personal manner, the narrative explaining how his researches unfolded and what remains to be done. The text is readable and entertaining for any birdwatcher, while more advanced ornithologists will find a mass of carefully analysed detail in tabulated appendices.
