I could possibly be going to Shanklands Resort on the Essequibo River in January, and I would like to know what kind of birds they have there. I have looked at almost all the websites about it, but I could hardly find anything about the birds .
I think Nigel Wheatley's 'Where to Watch Birds in South America' has some info about Shanklands, but I don't have it. Maybe someone could tell me what the book says about Shanklands.

Recorded are as follows:-
Birds - Approx. 210 Species
Butterflies - 11 of 12 families in all of South America
Primates - 8 Species
Bats - 30 Species
Trees - 56 Species
Small Plant Species - Research in Process
Mammals - Research in Process


Interestingly enough, although they quote "approx 210 species" they only list 6 on their web site.
