    A bird lover’s book like no other, this illustrated atlas offers maps, photographs, art, and engaging text to portray our abundantly rich and fascinating world of birds.

    This resplendent large-format atlas, gracefully written and attractively designed, will intrigue everyone curious about the world’s birds—from backyard bird-watchers to global birding adventurers.

    A decade ago, author Noah Strycker made birding history by spending a year traveling every continent and observing 6,042 species—more than anyone else before him.

    Now, he invites you to journey with him to every corner of the globe, exploring the beauty and wonder of birds in 111 distinct bioregions, desert to ocean, poles to tropics.

    Chapter by chapter, we come to know the birds of Earth’s key bioregions—from nocturnal owls deep in the boreal forests to resilient penguins in Antarctica, from colorful parrots in South America to showy birds of paradise in New Guinea. For each region, Strycker identifies the top birds of interest and outlines the natural history of each landscape they inhabit. Beautiful enough to grace a coffee table and detailed enough to inform travel aspirations, the National Geographic Birder’s Atlas of the World will satisfy many a reader.

    Features in these pages include:
    • 111 destination sidebars, spotlighting top birding locales
    • 262 maps, pinpointing parks, lodges, and nature preserves
    • 1,500+ top bird species identified
    • Of those, the 44 most rewarding to find
    • 475 color photographs of birds and the landscapes they inhabit
    • 12 stories and maps revealing amazing migration routes
    • 18 Nat Geo Explorers and their work in bird science and conservation
