With a rich avifauna of more than 350 species that includes 29
endemics, the island of Sri Lanka is one of southern Asia's most popular birding
destination.

This new field guide provides full coverage of every species on the Sri Lanka list, including
most vagrants, with particular emphasis placed on endemic species and races. Detailed text highlights key identification criteria, along with accurate colour maps. Packed with spectacular and detailed plates by leading bird artists such as Alan Harris, Tim Worfolk and John Cox, Birds of Sri Lanka is the definitive identification tool for the visiting birdwatcher and another majestic addition to the Helm Field Guides series.

Grimmett, Richard: - Richard Grimmett is a keen birder who has visited southern Asia many times. He has co-authored numerous identification guides to the Indian Subcontinent and its constituent regions, mainly in collaboration with Carol and Tim Inskipp. Richard has worked for BirdLife International for more than 40 years and was in charge of the Asia Programme, based in Indonesia and then Japan, between 1997 and 2007. Until recently he was BirdLife's Director of Conservation and is currently a Senior Conservation Advisor. He lives in Cambridgeshire, UK, and his birding these days is mainly on his local patch, RSPB Ouse Fen.

Having had had a deep interest in birds from a very young age, especially in conservation and environment issues., Carol first visited the Indian subcontinent with her husband Tim in 1977. She has made numerous visits to the region since, and together with Richard Grimmett and Tim she has co-authored several bird field guides to the subcontinent.

Carol has carried out extensive bird survey work widely in Nepal with Tim and later with Nepalese ornithologists. She has written a number of bird conservation books with Nepalis, including the National Nepal Bird Red List and Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas in Nepal.

Inskipp, Tim: - Tim Inskipp is a leading expert on the birds of southern Asia. He was co-author (with his wife Carol, and Richard Grimmett) of the major work Birds of the Indian Subcontinent (Helm, 1998), from which numerous highly acclaimed field guides to the region went on to spring.
