For those of you interested James Bond's Birds of the West Indies (ISBN 0 00
219191 1) lists and describes Caribbean birds giving their Creole names,
distribution and detailed description.  Incidentally, Ian Fleming named his British
spy hero after James Bond the ornithologist.  Haiti has 221 species of birds,
19 of which are endemic to Hispanola.  Hispanola is considered a biodiversity
"hotspot".
