The definitive photographic guide to the vibrant and under-explored avifauna of Uruguay.
As a grassland country in the heart of the pampas, Uruguay is a fantastic destination for birdwatchers. With around 450 regularly occurring species, the country boasts iconic species such as Greater Rhea, Crane Hawk, Maroon-bellied Parakeet and Saffron-cowled Blackbird, as well as pampas specialities including Curve-billed Reedhaunter and Pampas Meadowlark.
The perfect companion for any wildlife-friendly visitor, Birds of Uruguay provides photographic coverage of more than 320 species that regularly breed in or pass through the country. Concise text for each species includes information on identification, songs and calls, behaviour, distribution and habitat, with each photograph carefully selected to aid identification. A guide to the best birdwatching sites in Uruguay is also included.
Portable yet authoritative, this is the perfect guide for birdwatchers visiting this spectacular and bird-rich country in South America.
