This series, consisting of 10 parts, was originally published in the Netherlands but was later also released in German, English, and French.

This complete German-language series offered here consists of the following parts:
European Birds I and II (based on The Birds of Europe and The Birds of Great Britain)
Australian birdlife I and II (based on The Birds of Australia)
