They are a distinctive and popular group of birds, and include two very familiar and attractive British species - the Stonechat and Whinchat.This volume is primarily an identification guide, using colour plates and photographs to illustrate the various races and plumages, but the text also covers the biology, habitat and range of each species. DNA data is presented, and there are distribution maps for each species.
