Icterids range throughout the Americas, from Alaska to Cape Horn, and including the Caribbean. Despite the name blackbird, many of the 103 species covered in this book are very brightly coloured, and the group includes some of the most intensively studied species in the world - Red-winged Blackbird and Brown-headed Cowbird for instance.
The 39 colour plates depict every species, showing races where relevant, while the text is exhaustive in its coverage.
