Containing hundreds of stunning photographs by Yves-Jacques Rey-Millet, A Photographic Guide to the Birds of the Cayman Islands provides full photographic coverage of every species on the Cayman Islands list. With a rich avifauna of more than 300 species, the three islands that make up the Cayman Islands - Grand Cayman, Little Cayman and Cayman Brac - form an increasingly popular birding destination. Although the islands' sole endemic species, Cayman Islands Thrush, was extinct by the 1940s, the islands have a healthy crop of regional scarcities and are an important migrant stopping point as they cross the Caribbean. Concise text for each species includes identification, similar species, voice, habitats and behaviour, status and distribution. This guide is an essential companion for anyone visiting these beautiful islands.

In the course of the last century a considerable amount of scientific work has been carried out in the Cayman Islands. The results of this (outlined in Chapter 1) are widely distributed in unpublished reports, university theses, various scientific publications and books, many of these sources being difficult to find and some now unobtainable. The purpose of this book, therefore, is to bring all this scattered information together and to present a coherent account of the biogeography and ecology of the Islands, as an easily available reference source and as a foundation on which future work can be based.

Excerpt from The Birds of the West Indies: Including All Species Known to Occur in the Bahama Islands, the Greater, Antilles, the Caymans, and the Lesser Antilles, Excepting, the Islands of Tobago and Trinidad Several of the collectors were absent from six to eighteen months, and it is fair to assume that their collections contained nearly all of the resident species of the islands which they visited. The collections made by Mr. W. B. Richardson in Grand Cayman and some of the Lesser Antilles proved especially interesting, being very rich in novelties, his combined collections containing no less than seventeen species new to science.
