Reviews for Birds of Northern South America: An Identification Guide: Plates and Maps
A monumental work, this is among the best designed field guides I have come across. What they have achieved has already surpassed by a significant margin all other field guides in the region. This guide is in a different class and is an absolute must for anyone birding South America north of the Amazon.
