Big Bend National Park is the leading park for bird sightings in the National Park Service. More species have been recorded there than in any other national park. Birds of Big Bend National Park and Vicinity is the most up-to-date book about birds of the area and where they may be seen within and near the park. It is a "where to go and see what" book, not just a field guide to bird identity. This comprehensive discussion of what birds occur in this area, where best to find them, and when to see them, is intended to help the birder find the particular birds he wants to see. It is also designed for the reader with a general interest in nature or with a special interest in the Big Bend area. Sections include a description of the Big Bend country, including all of the plant communities; a thorough discussion of bird finding at all seasons; a history of ornithological study within the Big Bend area; and a complete annotated list of species. The list of species includes a discussion of all 385 birds recorded for Big Bend National Park, as well as a discussion of species known for other parts of the Big Bend--from the Rio Grande to the David Mountains and Lake Balmorhea. A detailed map of the area is provided, and there are 17 photographs and 8 paintings in full color.--Cover

The Trans-Pecos, that huge region of Texas west of the Pecos River, is richer in recorded bird species than all but three of the United States. Hundreds of birders come here each year in search of species such as the Colima Warbler which are rarely if ever spotted in other parts of the country. Yet, until now, there was no comprehensive birding guide devoted to the entire region. Designed for intermediate to advanced birders, Birds of the Trans-Pecos provides an annotated checklist of all 482 species found in the region. The species accounts include seasonal distribution, documentation of nesting, most likely habitat, and the bird's status as a "Texas Review Species." The authors also describe the geography and bird habitats of the Trans-Pecos; federal and state parklands in the area (including Big Bend and Guadalupe Mountains), with the species that occur in each; and the mountain-breeding birds and species of special interest.
