There was a Gartered Trogon right above me, and one cooperative Brown-throated Three-toed Sloth on a cecropia tree, raising its head to smile at us. A group (maybe 4-5 ex.) At the Pacuare river bank there was a group of rafters getting ready to tackle the noisy waves.

Browsing is facilitated by section titles at the top of each left-hand page and smaller group titles on the upper right-hand page. plus a chapter on “Vagrant landbirds from North America.”

Delegorgue’s main ornithological contribution was collecting Delegorgue’s Pigeon in the now vanished forests of Durban, but besides this he had little significant input. Wahlberg travelled even more extensively and amassed a huge bird collection. Woodward’s Barbet belongs to a group of barbets known as Green Barbets.

The breeding and wintering birds of Britain and Ireland. Published in 1976, The Atlas was, I believe, the very first work of its kind.
