Birds of the Lesser Antilles Summary

Birds of the Lesser Antilles by Ryan Chenery

A portable yet authoritative guide to more than 300 of the most commonly seen birds of the Lesser Antilles. The Lesser Antilles - incorporating the nations of Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Dominica, Grenada, St Kitts and Nevis, St Lucia, St Vincent and the Grenadines, along with numerous dependencies - are rich in birdlife. It is a magical region for a naturalist to explore, with endemic parrots, orioles, thrushes, warblers and more. The perfect companion for any wildlife-savvy visitor to the islands, Birds of the Lesser Antilles includes superb photography of more than 200 commonly encountered species across the islands, including all endemics and many subspecies. Concise text for each species includes information on identification, songs and calls, behaviour, distribution and habitat, with each photo having been carefully selected to guide identification. This is the ideal guide for birdwatchers visiting these spectacular and bird-rich islands.

Birds of the Lesser Antilles Reviews

If you are planning a trip to any of these remarkable small islands, whether for a holiday or any other reason, you just have to pack this highly portable guide in your bag! * BirdsCaribbean *
It covers a mix of residents and regular migrants, and the focus is rightly on commoner birds more likely to be encountered, but this is enhanced by an understandable celebration of a few regional stars .... For holidaymakers with an interest in birds, for birdwatching holidaymakers, and for more serious birders who might fancy a photographic complement to artwork-based field guides, this book represents a good buy. * Neotropical Birding *
