This book is for all who travel the highways and byways of Southern Africa and who appreciate the natural wonders which unfold before them. Kenneth Newman exquisitely portrays the majority of birds which can be seen by the traveller.

Here are the beauteous “Long-tailed Widow-bird”, the proud goshawk surveying his do-main, the gaudy Red Bishop-bird flitting like a bumble bee over the mealie fields and many other specimens of our rich bird life which add colour and excitement to a journey.

Newman’s reputation as a South African artist, ornithologist and writer was established with the publication of his first book Garden Birds of South Africa and this is intended as a companion volume to this work.
