Overview
This book looks in detail at two families of South American birds, the cotingas and manakins, perhaps the most colourful of all neotropical bird groups, and widely regarded as the South American equivalent of New Guinea's Birds of Paradise. The book is a synthesis of the very latest research into the identification, taxonomy and behaviour of each of the 160 species, along with detailed colour maps, several hundred previously unpublished colour photographs, and Eustace Barnes's stunning colour plates.
About the Author(s)
Guy Kirwan is an ornithologist and tour-leader, based partly in the UK and partly in Brazil. He was a founder of the Neotropical Bird Club and has edited its journal Cotinga since 1997. He is also Editor of the prestigious Bulletin of the British Ornithologists' Club. Graeme Green is a widely travelled birder with a long-standing interest in cotingas.
