The elusive Wryneck is best renowned for performing a twisting, writhing head and neck display when threatened, but this ground-breaking study reveals many more secrets of its behaviour and evolution. Detailed information is presented on the species' origins, taxonomy, anatomy, appearance, moult, calls, distribution, conservation status, habitats, movements, breeding, diet and relationships, along with a chapter on its closest relative, the Red-throated Wryneck.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe text is richly illustrated throughout with high quality photographs as well as sound spectrograms. This all-encompassing and engaging account has been written for a wide audience, whether professional ornithologist, citizen scientist, amateur birder, woodpecker aficionado and simply someone who wishes to learn more about this curious and remarkable bird.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gerard Gorman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1784272884\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781784272883\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pelagic Publishing Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.13h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Gerard Gorman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43993249644799,"sku":"9781784272883","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_de81c089-752c-4c33-957b-2eefa255cbff.jpg?v=1683323344","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-wryneck-gerard-gorman-9781784272883","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
