It draws on the latest findings from the field and sheds light on the lush alpine and forested terrains that make this avifauna so rich and plentiful. With illuminating essays that share invaluable perspectives from some of the region's leading bird conservationists, Birds of the Tropical Andes takes readers from the Pacific coast to the jungles of the Amazon, crossing peaks and high plains in search of spectacular birdlife. Lavishly illustrated with a wealth of photographs Tours the vast array of habitats that comprise the Andean mountains Covers every major ecosystem and its abundant birdlife Profiles representative species, including the rarest and most sought after Discusses the region's unique geology and Indigenous culture A must for birders, ecotravelers, and armchair naturalists.
