An extremely useful field guide for the neotropical ornithologist. High quality illustrations and good species description. Very complete and fulfil it's role of comprehending the non-passerines. Strongly recommended!

As non bird watcher, I bougth this to revieuw all the birds I saw on a recent trip to Peru. It is a good book. The only limitation is that only the Non-Passerines are shown, so I will need to buy another book to be complete. I miss an explanation in the introduction off what are passerine and non-passerine birds.
Great to have them together July 29, 2007

Great to have all the non-passerine birds (non-songbirds) together in one booklet, for the most bird-rich continent in the world. Especially handy for those countries that still don't have good field guides, but also handy for comparing species across country boundaries.
The paintings are very nice, and the birds have their natural pose, something we are missing in the latest field guides. The distribution maps are bit small, but still adequate.
For any lover of Southamerican birds, the quality of the paintings alone is worth the purchase of this book, with 1300 species.
compact and complete January 24, 2007
The book is really complete, with very nice draws of the species listed, and some interesting information about each group and species.

this book contains all the non passerine birds in S. America, although it doesn't give in depth descriptions of them it is much easier to use than my five pound book that coveres half of the passerines.
