Cantos de las aves de la República Dominicana = Bird songs in the Dominican Republic

Abstract

[Este recurso no está disponible en formato electrónico para consulta en línea o descarga]. This work contains examples of the vocalizations of an even 100 of the over 200 bird species known from the West Indian Island of Hispaniola. Nor is this collection padded with migrant and ubiquitous species; indeed, most if not all of the island's endemics are among the forms presented. These include the Least Pauraque (Siphonorhis brewsteri), the newly resurrected Ashy-faced Barn Owl (Tyto glau-cops), the Ground Warbler (Microlegia palustris), the White-winged Warbler (Xenolegia montana), the La Selle Thrush (Turdus swalesi), and the Palm Chat (Dulus dominicus). George Reynard, the recordist, has long been a research associate of the Laboratory of Ornithology at Cornell University, and has produced a previous recording devoted to Caribbean birds. It includes two phonodiscs (vinilo LP) in a double album produced at Laboratory of Ornithology, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York. Booklet and narration bilingual in English and Spanish.
