Treasure for Bird Lovers

HKBWS Field Guide to the Birds of Hong Kong and South China is a birding guide book which records the bird species in Hong Kong and the South China region and describes in great details their appearance, behaviours, distributions and migratory patterns. The book contains careful bird drawings which are instrumental for birders to identify birds at field.


45 Years of Strong Field Support

HKBWS Field Guide to the Birds of Hong Kong and South China was first published in 1977 and ever since then it has become one of the most important guide books for birders regionally.
