Product Details
Field Guide=A guide with illustrations or photographs for identificationOur Opinion: This new edition is based on 50 years of the late Richard ffrench's notes and records of the island's birds, with up-to-date taxonomy. It retains the format of the earlier edition, with the color plates in the center of the book, but adds illustrations of migratory species. All-new color plates by John P. O'Neill, John Anderton, Dale Dyer, and John Schmitt, with additional works by Debby Kaspari and Barry Van Dusen. Individual species accounts cover habitat and status, range and subspecies, description, measurements, voice, food, nesting, and behavior, plus notes. The introduction covers the history of ornithology in Trinidad and Tobago, the environment, ecology and distribution of species, breeding, migration, and conservation. The appendix includes a complete species checklist, with locations of collected specimens, and the book concludes with a bibliography, and an index of scientific names and of common names.
