Field Guide to the Birds of Cuba 2nd ed

This fully updated second edition of the Field Guide to the Birds of Cuba provides a comprehensive and easy-to-use guide for identifying over 370 listed species and the 29 existing endemic species of the country. It incorporates changes in the composition of Cuban avifauna while remaining an accessible introduction to the birds of Cuba — including the irresistible Cuban Tody, the dazzling Cuban Trogon, and the tiny Bee Hummingbird, the world's smallest bird species.

• A brand new design featuring 95 full-color plates and over 700 images illustrating the plumages of males, females, and, where applicable, juveniles.
• Detailed species accounts with distribution maps, precise descriptions, distinctive characteristics, a list of habitats frequented by the bird, behaviors, and vocalizations.
• Winter and breeding plumages are included for migratory species, which is particularly useful for identifying the large number of birds that migrate south from North America.

A reference guide written by the country's leading ornithologists, Arturo Kirkconnell and Orlando H. Garrido, this Field Guide to the Birds of Cuba brings together a wealth of knowledge accumulated over a lifetime of study and observation.
