This review is from: Checklist of the Birds of Northern South America: An Annotated Checklist of the Species and Subspecies of Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, Aruba, ... & Tobago, Guyana, Suriname and French Guiana (Paperback)

While the cover of this book demonstrates beautifully colored birds, it is only a checklist with no illustrations. Unless you are looking for a checklist with no illustrations this is not a reference for the traveling birder!
