As one of Australia s finest natural history artists, photographers and authors over a period of decades, with the renowned Slater Field Guide to Australian Birds among his many works, the late great Peter Slater needs no introduction. For Australian Hawks and Eagles Peter teamed up with the equally talented award-winning artist Sally Elmer to produce the ultimate book on birds of prey ranging in size from the diminutive Collared Sparrowhawk to the mighty Wedge-tailed Eagle. More than 20 species are covered, including goshawks, kites, buzzards, bazas, ospreys and harriers. Engaging text explains all about the lives of these enigmatic birds, while stunning photography and artworks all produced by the authors during decades of detailed study provide a window into the hidden world of these raptors, which rarely venture close to people but capture our imaginations with their powerful flight and awesome hunting habits.
