This is the first book to summarize in one volume much-needed practical data about the distribution and breeding habitat requirements of migratory birds in North and South America. The body of the book consists of natural history accounts of the more than 350 species of Neotropical migrants, including a brief description of each bird’s range, status, habitats on breeding grounds, nest site, and wintering areas. The authors provide a complete range map of each species’ distribution in the Western Hemisphere as well as notes on the distribution—basic data that until recently have largely been unavailable in usable form to ornithologists. An appendix lists species that are increasing or decreasing at significant rates in various regions of North America.
