Title

It's All In The Family

Topics

Jim Clements will present an overview of the interesting and diverse bird families into which the 10,000 species of birds of the world fall. Some will be familiar, others will be more exotic.. His talk will be illustrated with his superb photographs taken during visits he has made to 132 countries over a half century of dedication to conservation issues in general and birding in particular.

About the Speaker

Jim is best known as the author of Birds of the World: A Checklist. This monumental work, now in it's fifth edition, is a compilation of the 10,000 species of birds of the world, their range, and over 20,000 subspecies. He is also the senior author of A Field Guide to the Birds of Peru, and last year finished A Field Guide to the Birds of Yap Island. A long time, dedicated birder, Jim's life list exceeds 7000. SBAS was priviledged to have Jim as a speaker two years ago when he presented on the Birds of Manu, Peru.
