The book of the film:

This DVD has been produced in conjunction with a book of the same title so it’s easy to find out all you need about every site in the film. The DVD is ideal for showing you each place and its birds and the book is perfect for giving you lots more information, including detailed maps, in a portable format – together they make the complete guide.Fatbirder View: Usually, when I look at Dave’s latest DVD I either re-live a past trip or my appetite is whetted for a birding trip to the country the DVD was filmed in. In this case I felt both – I loved being reminded of many of the locations I visited over a decade ago and the birds I saw. Moreover, my appetite was whetted by the many localities I did NOT visit and the birds I never saw.
