Birds of the Nile Valley: An AUC Press Nature Foldout

Tourists are not the only foreigners who flock to Egypt. Egypt is a unique land bridge creating one of the world’s largest bird migration systems. Throughout the year, and especially in fall and spring, one can witness the passage of over five million birds all along the Nile. This full-color foldout guide introduces an exciting array of bird species found throughout the Nile Valley from Aswan and Luxor to Cairo. Each AUC Press Nature foldout is compact yet dense with gorgeous illustrations and beautifully written text. The series introduces adults and children alike to a plethora of wonderful information, enlightening tourists considering traveling to Egypt, the child learning about the natural heritage of another country, or the Egyptologist identifying animal species in hieroglyphs. With scientific consultant and leading Egyptologist-ornithologist, John Wyatt. Printed in Egypt.
