Taxonomy of the birds of the world

How do you come up with the idea to list all the birds in the world including the subspecies and to give all birds English names?

There is a reason for it - my favorite saying, whose author is unknown:

"Everyone said that¿s not possible - then there was one who did not know that and just did it!"

I am an animal photographer and probably a little bit crazy. I¿ve built a complete animal database for mammals and birds over the last decade. This facilitates my work in determining and archiving images and assigning keywords, especially among the many subspecies.

With this book, I would like to give all birding friends and ornithologists a complete overview in English. For this I have given unique English names to all subspecies. The naming should not meet any scientific requirements. The names are based on translations from the Latin name, geographical distribution areas and the names of the discoverers.

The entries consist of the scientific name, the English name, the distribution areas and the author.

I wish you a lot of fun with this book, but especially while watching the fascinating birdlife.
