Collins Bird Guide Updated, But Did Anyone Know?

By Lars Svensson, Killian Mullarney & Dan Zetterstrom

I was told about this new second edition a few days ago, so purchased myself a copy to compare to my old second edition copy.

The 'new' second edition has new plates in, predominanently from page 303 to 317 and now shows for example: new text and illustrations for Subalpine Warbler and now split as Moltoni's Warbler, Eastern Subalpine Warbler and Western Subalpine Warbler. What I did notice was, when comparing each page last night, that the colour production is brighter (greater strength of colours) overall throughout the book.

  1. I wonder if every time the CBG app gets updated were going to get a revised book edition!
