Few people know that there is two times the number of endemic birds on the island of Hispaniola as in the entire United States. A book sponsored by Inicia and developed by Mario Davalos and Capital DBG is available online as part of a new effort to draw attention to the wonderful birds of Hispaniola and their importance for the balance of the ecosystems in the Caribbean. Davalos describes the project as the most important document on the birds of the Dominican Republic.
The “Alas y Colores: Aves endemicas de La Española” book has illustrations by US artist Alex Warnick.
