North America edition of woodpecker book

Just discovered that in the USA & Canada the cover and sub-title of WOODPECKERS OF THE WORLD will be different from the UK edition (as it's a co-edition). So all North American woodpecker lovers can look (and order !) here: http://www.fireflybooks.com/bookdetail&ean=9781770853096

Here is a sample of pages from my forthcoming book WOODPECKERS OF THE WORLD (I just got a pre-publication copy). Hope you like the look of it, it is due out in June.
