BIRD BOOK CHOICES

Normal 0 false false false EN-GB X-NONE X-NONE

We recently visited the UK and France and were lucky enough to find the RSPB Birds of Britain & Europe which we used with pleasure.  We now want to buy one but see that there is also a RSPB Complete Birds of Britain and Europe.  Both by Rob Hume.  Please can you explain the difference?  We are avid South African birders and found our European experience enhanced by the superb book we used.  We would want a book that could be carried and which would give us all necessary aid to identification as well as some information about the birds (habitat, feeding, nesting, etc.). Please can you give me some advice?

Does anyone have any suggestions as to better books?
