5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent resource,
By Mavis Metcalf "http://birds.bellaonline.com" (Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Parrots in Aviculture: A Photo Reference Guide (Hardcover)
This book is an excellent reference book to keep and to look at whenever you want information on any type of parrot kept in aviculture. Every bird had a good clear picture and a description giving length & weight as well as origin and status. She describes the appearance of the immature of each species, indicates clutch size, incubation time & fledging time if you are interested in breeding. Each species is listed under the common name, as well as the scientific name and also gives the German and Dutch common names. I have no hesitation in recommending this book to any bird lover.

Forget the Crackers! Polly Want This Book!,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Parrots in Aviculture: A Photo Reference Guide (Hardcover)
Anyone with any interest in birds will be enchanted by this
beautifully-produced work. Rosemary Low is one of the
world's leading authorities on parrots and her concise text,
coupled with the clear photographs by Ron and Val Moat, make
this book a must-have. If you have ever wandered into a pet
store and wondered about the parrots for sale, you will find
them here--all of them! If you are interested in keeping
birds, you will discover what each species eats and a brief
description of its idiosyncracies. This book is a milestone
in that it is the first pocket encyclopedia showing a colour
photo of each parrot species bred in captivity.
