Galápagos: A Natural History, Second Edition by John Kricher and Kevin Loughlin gives the traveling naturalist the tools needed to fully appreciate and experience the Galápagos Islands.

A side benefit is that, if you’re an eBird junky like me, you get a cool collection of personal locations out near the continental shelf, a testimony to hours and days spent in this incredible place and the ways changing conditions can affect your route. Conditions, and birds, can be wildly different from one day to the next out there.

Furthermore we have another very special stork-like bird, the regal Shoebill , previously known as the Whale-headed Stork but now placed in its own family.

This book is part of the Lynx Illustrated Checklists collection created from the wealth of data, illustrations and maps compiled for the Handbook of the Mammals of the World (HMW) series which has been distilled into handbooks that can be easily carried into the field. Larger species, that is, excluding dolphins and whales.

This may be the most awesome pelagic you’ll ever experience… For me it was the publication in 1984 of Peter Harrison’s ground-breaking identification guide to ‘ Seabirds ’ that opened up the off-shore world of pelagic birding right on Cape Town’s door step.
Expert insights. Personalized for you.
