After a particularly enjoyable chat at the American Birding Expo with Katinka Domen from Beaks and Peaks of Honduras, I suddenly realized that I have been remiss in not making known here the recent publication of a very important new guidebook: Robert Gallardo‘s Guide to the Birds of Honduras.
With illustrations by John Sill, Michael DiGiorgio, and Ian Griffiths, this new guide is a combination of both a species reference and a bird finding guide. Moreover, not only is it – so far as I can discern – the first complete guide to the birds of Honduras, it is also reported by the publisher to cover 98% of the bird species to be found in Guatemala, El Salvador, Belize and Nicaragua.
