Description

Situated in the center of a state renowned for its abundant and varied birdlife, the Texas Hill Country provides habitat for 420 resident and migratory species, including the endangered Golden-cheeked Warbler and Black-capped Vireo. Mark Lockwood, a biologist with Texas Parks and Flora and fauna, has monitored these and other bird populations all over the Hill Country for a few years. In this book, he offers a complete, up-to-date guide to the status and distribution of each and every bird species reliably reported on the Edwards Plateau.

The species accounts focal point on four key characteristics of each and every bird: relative abundance, distribution within the region, habitat, and timing of occurrence. As well as, Lockwood discusses species which have been reported, but not documented, in the Hill Country, in addition to those that might be expected to occur. For birders and ornithologists less accustomed to the region, Lockwood also gives a general introduction to the ecology of the Edwards Plateau and to the flora and birdlife found in eighteen parks and birding areas.
