BIRDS of THE WORLD


Birds of ANTARCTICA


See also Penguins of the World

I usually don't include bird photos from an area unless I have visited there. I'm making an exception for Antartica because Armin Rose, who has visited Antartica, offered the use of his photos. Please visit his website. And any other adventurous birders out there - please send your photos to dick@dicksandy.org.
