Rare Bird's Year Book 2008 has been published recently which can be bought here. Since I contributed a few images of Indian Vultures (subspecies of Long Billed Vulture) I got a complementary copy of the book. Initially I was happy to see a few of my images in the book but soon I realized what the book is all about - for me it symbolically stood as evidences for misdeeds in this world which pushed some of these beautiful creation of God towards extinction. I hope a book like this will atleast help create awareness amoung some people of this world towards conserving them. I only wish thickness of subsequent books decreases during years to come. Part of the proceeds of each book sold (4 pounds out of 19) will go towards conservation efforts. I encourage you to buy them ! I have ordered 5 more copies as a small token of my contribution towards this conservation effort..

Can I have a copy please?
Sure Pramod..
Thanks for the info Ganesh - just booked one yesterday night - waiting for it to arrive :)
Lets do what ever possible from our side for a cause.
And as you said lets hope that the size of the book comes down next time.
I don't understand why the large book sellers like Amazon are still hasitating to take this book in stock. I was rather disappointed after I've tried to order this book at Amazon and Amazon cancelled the November 2007 release date. That is not okay when you want to sell large numbers of that book
