From Grand Bahama Island in the north to Grenada in the south, this guide covers a tropical avifaunal region which includes such species as the tiny bee hummingbird, parrots, honey-creepers and todies.

Review:
“This illustrated guide will be a great boon to professional and amateur, even traveller and visitor with the most casual interest in birds”. NATURE
“Mr Bond’s volume is intended for a quick reference and is planned to enable the birds of the West Indian islands to be identified with the minimum of trouble and minimum of description. For purposes of identification the colour plates in this volume could not be bettered”. TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT
