"Birders have shown that they want and need regional avian
distribution books such as this one. This book will fill a gap in
the effort to accomplish this sort of regional guide for all areas
of Texas. The Trans-Pecos is a popular destination for
birders-making this ever more important." -- Greg W. Lasley,
Editor, Texas Region, Field Notes
The Trans-Pecos, that huge region of Texas west of the Pecos
River, is richer in recorded bird species than all but three of the
United States. Hundreds of birders come here each year in search of
species such as the Colima Warbler which are rarely if ever spotted
in other parts of the country. Yet, until now, there was no
comprehensive birding guide devoted to the entire region.
Designed for intermediate to advanced birders, Birds of the
Trans-Pecos provides an annotated checklist of all 482 species
found in the region. The species accounts include seasonal
distribution, documentation of nesting, most likely habitat, and
the bird's status as a "Texas Review Species." The authors also
describe the geography and bird habitats of the Trans-Pecos;
federal and state parklands in the area (including Big Bend and
Guadalupe Mountains), with the species that occur in each; and the
mountain-breeding birds and species of special interest.
