Volume I of a comprehensive two-part identification guide dealing exclusively with the birds of this region.
It covers all the species, including vagrants, found in Ecuador, Columbia, Venezuela, Aruba, Curaçao, Bonaire, Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana, Suriname and French Guiana. More than 2,300 species are described in depth in the text, describing geographical variation, identification, status, habitat, voice and taxonomy. Detailed and comprehensive colour plates and distribution maps may be found in the second volume, Birds of Northern South America: An Identification Guide: Plates and Maps.
This authoritative book will not only be an indispensable guide to the visiting birder, but also a vital tool for those engaged in work to conserve and study the avifauna of this region, which is of such importance to both the indigenous species and those which pass through on migration.
