Article number 10217818

The book is a thorough natural‑history monograph on the world’s geese that surveys their classification, ecology, breeding biology, geographic distribution, migratory behaviour, identification features (including plumage variations and vocalisations), and conservation issues, with detailed discussions of species across North America, Europe and Asia, supported by maps and colour plates; the author, an established ornithologist, integrates scientific knowledge with practical field guidance on ageing, sexing and observing geese, and places emphasis on their status and movements within changing natural and human environments.
