Birds of Australia: A Summary of Information
''Birds of Australia: A Summary of Information'' is a compact handbook on Australian birds published in 1973. It was authored by the originally British ornithologist James David Macdonald who moved permanently to Australia in 1968 following his retirement from a long career with the British Natural History Museum, one of the final responsibilities of which was the organisation of the Harold Hall Australian bird collecting expeditions during the 1960s. The book is dedicated to the sponsor of the expeditions, Australian-born philanthropist Harold Wesley Hall, OBE, MC.〔Macdonald (1973), p.v.〕

Serventy, with 51 pages of distribution maps at the end between the species accounts and the index.〔Macdonald (1973).〕
