​Following are some recommended books and recordings for your birding tour to JAMAICA. Note that some materials are broad in scope, covering the entire West Indies. These materials represent the best choice for those interested in more than one visit to these islands. In addition, since many North American resident species migrate through or winter in the Antillean Subregion and are usually common members of this avifauna, it is helpful to consult of some of the field guides for the birds of North America (not indicated here).​
