Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1983 a survey of the breeding birds of the Falkland Islands was carried out and continued for the subsequent 10 breeding seasons. This work, based on the findings, shows that some species are found throughout the islands while others have a restricted distribution. Population estimates have been calculated and the distribution of most species is related to the main topographical features of the Falklands archipelago. The overall survey results and notes on habitat and breeding behaviour are compared with historical records since colonization began in 1764.
