The Dippers First edition. by Tyler, Stephanie and Ormerod, Stephen - 1994

London: T & A D Poyser, 1994. First edition, 1994. Hardback. xvi, 225pp. Dust jacket. Dippers are the world's only truly aquatic passerine birds, and their remarkable swimming and diving abilities have long attracted the interest of research biologists on both sides of the Atlantic, as well as elsewhere in Europe and Japan. For the birdwatcher and naturalist, the behavioural abilities of these attractive birds are only added to by the beauty of their preferred habitat, the fast-flowing streams of the wild uplands. The text is supported by numerous figures and photographs, and by the delightful drawings of Darren Rees. Book fine and with an unread feel. Dust jacket near fine. Unclipped. Small rectangular label to front flap.
