Birds of New Zealand

"Scofield and Stephenson’s book will be a major step above all others in the market, both in its scholarship and the quality of photography. It will be a “must-have” for birders."—Phil Battley, Massey University

“Upon returning from a trip to New Zealand last year, I had one regret: Scofield and Stephenson’s brilliant new guide was not yet available!  When you go, take this book.  It will enhance any birder’s experience with the stunning photos, maps, and detailed notes on identification, biology, and taxonomy of one of the world’s premier island bird faunas!”—John Marzluff, co-author of Dog Days, Raven Nights; Gifts of the Crow; and In the Company of Crows and Ravens

“Birders heading for New Zealand will want this book . . . An exceptional reference book and guide, which will undoubtedly be carried by every birder visiting the region.”—Choice ~P. K. Lago, Choice

‘This is a well-conceived and brilliantly executed guide, and an essential travelling companion for anyone with an interest in New Zealand’s unique avifauna.’—Dominic Mitchell, Birdwatch
