A stunning bird book.; 0 X 0 X 0 inches; 552 pages; The core of the book is a breathtaking visual journey through Colombia's birds organized thematically rather than as a strict field guide.

Highlights include: Iconic Families: Hummingbirds colibríes in hovering flight their jewel-like throats flashing; colorful tanagers parrots and toucans amid foliage; elusive antpittas and antbirds in understory shadows. Ecological Insights: Discussions on behaviors such as foraging mating displays and migration illustrated with dynamic shots of flocks in formation or solitary raptors soaring. Biodiversity Spotlight: Close-ups reveal plumage intricacies from the emerald sheen of quetzals to the crimson of cock-of-the-rock emphasizing how climate and geography drive speciation.
