Birds of Bangladesh is the definitive field guide to the rich avifauna of this fascinating and beautiful country.

Despite being one of the most densely populated countries on Earth, Bangladesh boasts a diverse range of natural habitats, including forests, wetlands and grasslands, and supports a wide range of species including a number of sought after regional specialities.

This book covers all 705 species that occur in Bangladesh, including vagrants. It includes 103 superb colour plates, with text on facing pages for quick and easy reference, as well as concise species accounts describe key identification features, voice, habitats, distribution and status.

Richard Grimmett and Tim Inskipp are unquestionably among the top ornithologists working with the avifauna of the Indian subcontinent. They’ve written many books for Helm on the region and its birdlife, over the course of almost thirty years. Paul Thompson is a birder based in Dhaka, Bangladesh.
