Birds of the Ukraine Region
Three academics have pooled their talents to produce a new hardback guide to the 240 bird species which have been recorded in the Ukraine region.
The book includes a photographic depiction of the local birds that covers their seasonal plumages and also their age and sexual dimorphism characteristics. There is also condensed information about the most important features of the avian species that would help to identify those birds in the wild. The data about the regional distributions, where and when to find, behaviour and their conservation status are also published.
This book is aimed at birdwatchers, biologists, naturalists, biology teachers, students of biology and agricultural specialists.
The three authors of Birds of Vinnytsya (Ukraine) Region are: Olexander Matviychuk, PhD, Associate Professor of the Department of Biology of Vinnytsya State Teaching University; Andriy Pirkhal, MS, a biologist at the Laboratory of Infectious Diseases “Vinnytsya Regional Laboratory Center of the Ukrainian Ministry of Health”; and Alexander Viduetsky, PhD, a member of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology (Valley Village, California, USA).
The project was sponsored by the Vinnytsya Regional Administration, Vinnytsya Regional Union and Regional Department of Ecology and Natural Resources; and the manuscript was approved by the Scientific Committee of the Vinnytsya State Teaching University.
This book (ISBN: 978-966-924-582-3) is written in Ukrainian, with the Birds Indices in Ukrainian, Latin, English and Russian.
I am delighted that the authors selected some 170 of my bird photographs to help illustrate the book.
