If for you all seabirds are called "seagulls", this book will suit you. Written by Fabrice Genevois and Christophe Barbaud, two passionate ornithologists and adventurers, this book makes all the details of seabird life very accessible.
For example, we learn that they can be divided into 10 groups, each with more or less specific characteristics related to life at sea.
The lifestyle, nesting, feeding... are presented for everyone in an educational, accessible, but also highly documented form. We enter the book with splendid photos, explicit boxes and a text that is always easy to read.
And if a large part of this book on seabirds describes above all their terrestrial life, it is because for these birds, the land is synonymous with reproduction. And the book points out the habitat problems and reproductive difficulties of these species, which lay only one egg per year.
Finally, the third part of this book reflects the evolution of life for these species, due to changes in their environment: human invasion, pollution problems..
Supported by beautiful and numerous photos, this book opens the door to a winged world. From animals flying over our coasts to their cousins living at the poles or the equator, all seabirds are reviewed. There is no doubt that the watches watching the sky will have another flavour when you can proudly and surely announce: "Look at this Gannet madman, he's going to dive!
