Acknowledgements

Оглавление

I have studied the sensory world of birds for a lifetime and have worked alongside a wonderful range of keen and enthusiastic people. They have helped me to investigate a fantastic range of birds and their senses, and in many different locations. I thank them all for their support, and the exchange of ideas and enthusiasm. The names of them will have appeared as joint authors of papers or in the acknowledgement footnotes of papers. They have all contributed to this book in different ways, and I acknowledge their help and encouragement. Various colleagues have read parts of this book, but one person who has read it all and sorted out over-complicated language and many grammatical errors is Judith Burl, and I especially thank her for helping to bring the book to completion. I must also acknowledge the very skilful and helpful copy-editing of Hugh Brazier. With an eagle’s eye he caught my errors and checked many details. He gave the manuscript a deep clean and final polish. Finally, I thank people who over the years have attended talks that I have given to both specialist and lay audiences. They have asked intriguing questions and challenged me to explain more. In so doing they convinced me that there could be a readership for a book on this topic.
