"Dr Ratcliffe's account of this especially interesting bird of prey has been eagerly awaited and now more than meets expectations. Not only is this a detailed, definitive study by an internationally acknowledged authority, it is also a well composed work with an easy flow that conceals its author's skilled presentation."

A fascinating and very readable account of these colourful and attractive birds.
