Flying Jewels
Recipient of the Pinnacle Book Achievement Award for Bilingual Books. Las Joyas Voladoras son los "Visita flores" o colibríes, y desempeñan un papel esencial de la mayor importancia, porque sólo ellos pueden polinizar muchos de los árboles y arbustos que forman parte de la naturaleza. Sin embargo, últimamente los números de estas pequeñas aves se han disminuido porque hemos invadido y destruido sus hábitats, pero este libro explica lo que podemos hacer para proteger y conservar este tesoro nacional. En Panamá, se han observado 59 especies de colibríes. Algunos de ellos son migratorios, pero aún así juegan un papel significante durante su permanencia en el país. Este libro es el trabajo del ingeniero Ralph Dessau y representa el resultado de su estudio de 8 años de los colibríes de Panamá, con 49 fotografías en color y una lista de los colibríes que se encuentran en Panamá con sus nombres en inglés, español y con su clasificación científica.
