Guide to birds of the Falkland Islands

A guide to the identification of all 185 species known to have been recorded on the Falkland Islands or within the 200 mile zone of surface water surrounding the archipelago. Twenty-one colour plates by Franklin Coombs illustrate all breeding species and most of the the non-breeding visitors and vagrants. Short notes on field identification are given opposite the plates and birds not illustrated are listed. Identification notes are cross referenced to the main text where full details on each species are provided.
