Description

The definitive photographic field guide to the diverse avifauna of Uruguay

Lying in the heart of the pampas, South America's great lowland grassland habitat, Uruguay is a fantastic destination for birdwatchers. It boasts iconic species such as Crane Hawk, Maroon-bellied Parakeet and Saffron-cowled Blackbird, as well as pampas specialities including Curve-billed Reedhaunter, Greater Rhea and Pampas Meadowlark.

The perfect companion for any wildlife-friendly visitor, Birds of Uruguay provides photographic coverage of more than 360 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 photographic guide of choice for birdwatchers visiting this spectacular and bird-rich corner of South America.
