Parrots of the Wild - A Natural History of the World's Most Captivating Birds

€ 38,00
Parrots of the Wild explores recent scientific discoveries and what they reveal about the lives of wild parrots, which are among the most intelligent and rarest of birds. Catherine A. Toft and Tim Wright discuss the evolutionary history of parrots and how this history affects perceptual and cognitive abilities, diet and foraging patterns, and mating and social behavior. The authors also discuss conservation status and the various ways different populations are adapting to a world that is rapidly changing. Parrots of the Wild focuses on general patterns across the 350-odd species of parrots, as well as what can be learned from interesting exceptions to these generalities.
