Birds of Patagonia, Tierra del Fuego and Antarctic Peninsula
ISBN: 9-568-0070-40
2003
Comprehensive field guide to all the resident, migrant and vagrant birds of Patagonia, Tierra del Fuego and Antarctic Peninsula, including the Falklands and South Georgia Islands. This is a unique region on the planet including the frozen austral fjords of Chile and the steep Argentina Atlantic coast that is virtually teemed with wildlife. Between are the Valdivian temperate forests that are the realm of the Chucao Tapaculo and the windy arid Patagonian Steppes where Rheas and Tinamous travel in groups. The guide describes over 400 species with over 2000 colour photographs. Descriptive accounts are provided for each species covering identification, status, range and habits. Distribution maps are also included. It is hoped that this book will inspire the reader to observe, learn and therefore protect the rich but also fragile birdlife of this remote outer corner of the world. Leave a Comment

 Stay warm by kyoub
Even the penguins wear a warm jacket here. Just kidding but you may need one especially if you are out on the water. Be prepared for rain because you will probably see plenty. It seems to always be breezy here also so bring a scarf and hat. Casual dress is good here
Bring plastic bags for your camera equipment. Plenty of memory or film would be good also. Leave a Comment
