À propos des auteurs

Arturo Kirkconnell is one of Cuba's leading ornithologists. The former Curator of Ornithology at the National Museum of Natural History of Cuba in Havana, his curriculum vitae includes almost 100 scientific papers on the island's birds, and he is the co-author of A Birdwatchers' Guide to Cuba and A Photographic Guide to the Birds of Cuba, along with two editions of the Helm field guide Birds of Cuba. Arturo has been leading birding tours in Cuba since 1988.

Orlando H. Garrido (1931-2024) was a leading ornithologist who contributed more than 60 years of service to the study of natural sciences in Cuba, where he curated the birds in Havana's National Museum of Natural History. With degrees from the University of Miami and the University of Havana, Orlando was the senior author of Field Guide to the Birds of Cuba and a contributing author to Birds of the West Indies, along with the authorship of hundreds of scientific publications.

A true Cuban legend, Garrido was both a respected naturalist credited with the description of more than 100 species, and a renowned tennis player, having played at Wimbledon several times in his youth.
