About
The Bird Atlas 2007-2011 is the definitive statement on breeding and winter bird distributions in Britain and Ireland.
Building on previous atlases (1968-1972 Breeding Atlas, 1981-1984 Winter Atlas, 1988-1991 Breeding Atlas), it shows how the fortunes of the birds of Britain and Ireland have changed over the last 40 years. The Bird Atlas 2007-2011 presents over 1,300 detailed maps for nearly 300 species, showing where each breeds and winters, where they are most and least abundant and where status is changing. The species accounts and chapters bring together the latest scientific findings to explain these patterns and highlight the major issues facing our changing bird faunas.
