Cuba: Key Bird Guides
Arturo Kirkconnell
Arturo Kirkconnell is a curator at the National Museum of Natural History of Cuba for the Ornithology Department.
Arturo, a native of Cuba, is recognized by many birders as the leading authority on Cuban birds. He is the co-author of two books, including A Field Guide to the Birds of Cuba, and A Birdwatchers’ Guide to Cuba, Jamaica, Hispaniola, Puerto Rico, and the Caymans.
He truly loves birding and ornithology, and this is his passion. His curriculum vitae includes 77 scientific papers, mostly focused on Cuban and Caribbean ornithology, natural history, and conservation. At present, he is working on another project, The Birds of Cuba (the BOU Checklist Series will publish that). Arturo completed his Bachelor of Science in Biology at the University of Havana.
As part of the Museum’s efforts to collect ornithological data, Arturo has been leading birding tours in Cuba for over two decades (since 1988). To date, he has guided more than 200 birding groups. He designed the present birding itinerary and developed the main strategies for bird-finding in Cuba.
Clients praise Arturo for his field skills, and they also indicate that his customer service is excellent. On trip after trip, Arturo (R1) and Arturo (R2) prove they take good care of our clients and work hard to meet our customers’ needs throughout the tour.
You will enjoy your birding and ornithological study experience with Arturo.
