Bird Books

Members of nearly all the families of South American birds can be found in these two beautiful West Indian islands, where the climate is pleasant and the habitats varied. This easy-to-use book is a comprehensive yet compact field guide to more than 430 species. Individual species accounts, arranged by family, cover habitat, status, range, subspecies, field description, voice, food, nesting, and behavior. They are illustrated by color pates and drawings—the work of two of the foremost artists in Neotropical ornithology. First published in 1973, this second edition has been brought up to date, with some redrawn and additional illustrations.
