This website originally supplimented the Princeton University Press book Habitats of the World: A field guide for birders, naturalists, and ecologists. However as each continental guide is produced the accounts will deal with both the habitats ata glocal level (189 habitats) and at a continental level (550 habitats)

​​

The complete project includes:

It is meant to be used in conjunction with the original text with more photo galleries, detailed species lists that show bird species related to that habitat and their "tie" to the habitat. The lists will show if the birds are Obligates, Strong Indicators, Weak Indicators, or are just Present in that habitat.

​

For users who do not want to purchase the original text, we have given you abridged versions of the book by fading some text on most of the sample pages from the book, though still presenting all climate data, photos and silouhettes. This should be enough for the very casual reader, but the full text is so much more fulfilling.

​

Please note that the original authors and those of us keeping this site up want it to be a communal effort, so if you have photos of interesting sub-habitats or ecotones, please send them to us to make this site more useful.
