Another great example of a little bird book is, yes, Little Bird , written by Germano Zullo, illustrated by Albertine, recently brought over from Switzerland and translated by Enchanted Lion Books. This beautiful book, an a import from Switzerland, is a joy to look at and read.

The source of this ranking, BirdLife International, lists Bolivia as currently having 1,439 bird species, including 18 breeding endemics. Like most maps, colors are used to indicate seasonal status (breeding resident, Austral migrant/visitor, Boreal migrant, etc.). Distribution maps are also different from other field guides.
