Wildlife - Playa Del Carmen
Steve Howell , Where to Watch Birds in Mexico (Christopher Helm). One for the enthusiast - over a hundred sites are listed, where more than 950 bird species can be seen. More general information on the recommended regions is also provided, along with tips on how to spot birds and identify them.
Steve Howell and Sophie Webb , The Birds of Mexico and Northern Central America (Oxford UP). A tremendous work, the result of years of research, this is the definitive book on the region's birds. Essential for all serious birders.
C. Kaplan , Coral Reefs of the Caribbean and Florida (Houghton Mifflin). Useful handbook on the abundant wildlife off the coasts off the Yucatán peninsula.
R.T. Peterson and E.L. Chalif , Mexican Birds (Houghton Mifflin). The classic ornithological guide to Mexico. The text is excellent, but drawings are limited to indigenous examples only; migratory species are included in additional (North American) guides, which can be frustratingly impractical.
