This compact and portable field reference will help Cubans, visitors from abroad, and bird enthusiasts identify and enjoy the island's avifauna. The 51 color plates and 662 images accurately illustrate male, female, and juvenile plumages (in some cases for the first time). Many migratory species are depicted in both winter and breeding colors, providing a glimpse of many common North American birds as they appear when away from northern surroundings. In the comprehensive Field Guide to the Birds of Cuba Orlando H. Garrido and Arturo Kirkconnell share their vast wealth of knowledge about birds-and habitats-that are too little known. Field Guide to the Birds of Cuba contains: *Species accounts including habitat descriptions, similar species, range, status, nesting and feeding habits, and vocalizations. *Checklists of endemic species and subspecies. *Background on the geography, climate, geology, paleontology, and natural history of Cuba. *144 maps that show regional boundaries and vegetative habitats as well as the local distribution of each species.

Seller's Description:
New. This fully updated second edition of the Field Guide to the Birds of Cuba offers a comprehensive and user-friendly guide to the identification of the more than 370 recorded species and 29 extant endemic species in the country. It incorporates changes to the composition of the avifauna of Cuba while remaining an accessible introduction to Cuban birds--including the irresistible Cuban Tody, the dazzling Cuban Trogon, and the diminutive Bee Hummingbird--the smallest species of bird in the world. All new design features 95 color plates and more than 700 images, depicting male, female and, when relevant, juvenile plumages. Species accounts include range maps, detailed descriptions, distinguishing characteristics, a list of habitats where the bird is found, behaviors, and vocalizations. Winter and breeding plumages are included for migratory species—extremely useful for identifying the large number of birds that migrate south from North America. A definitive guide from the country's best birders, Arturo Kirkconnell and Orlando H. Garrido, Field Guide to the Birds of Cuba presents a wealth of knowledge accumulated over a lifetime of work. "At the start of the millennium, two of Cuba's foremost ornithologists published the country's first field guide. Twenty-five years later, Arturo Kirkconnell and Orlando H. Garrido have done it again, providing an authoritative updated edition for a new generation of birdwatchers."—Guy Kirwan, Natural History Museum, London.
