A Field Guide to the Birds of Kenya and Northern Tanzania Buy from: Amazon.co.uk   or Amazon.com Zimmerman, et al "The only field guide to use in Kenya. I used this book on a recent trip to East Africa and it was invaluable. No other field guide to this region is comparable. The authors have cut down the hardback handbook to make an excellent field guide, especially for those LBJs such as larks and cisticolas. For any birder or general naturalist visiting Kenya or the adjacent countries this book is invaluable."
