by Elbert Greer

Belize, an obscure British colony formerly known as British Honduras, is a relatively new nation that is not very well known. However, it boasts of one of the most varied habitats you will ever find and filled with plenty of exotic avifauna!

Explore its rich habitats as author and bird guru Elbert Greer takes you Birdwatching with Bubba!

About the Book

Birdwatching with Bubba is not your typical guide. It is actually a collection of stories and photographs that was published in the local paper where the author writes about the ‘bird of the week’ column for the San Pedro Sun. For those who choose to, it can still be used as a guidebook since the author used all the bars and bartenders’ correct names so you won’t get lost.

Greer has tried to make all the bird information as accurate as possible, but that's not at all what this book is about, as you will see. This humorous gonzo style of bird watchers guide to Belize also includes tips on comfort, hazards and obstacles as well as how to get the opportunity for the most likely sighting of the bird you’re looking for.

Stick this book in your bag and carry it birdwatching! Gain valuable knowledge like the seasons when the wet lands are wet and when they are dry enough to explore. Use the maps and written directions to find Belizean sites and have an unforgettable adventure in Belize Birdwatching with Bubba!

haven't heard back from her yet

very cool. pick it up oprah!!!!

I was going to buy a copy to bring with me when I'm down in 10 days, but the books aren't already printed and ready to ship.

Elbert, do you have copies available? An autographed book would be especially nice!

My family booked a bird tour through Elbert when we were down last July and it was very interesting and great fun!

Debbie

Thanks but
Its going to take 20 days for me to get the authors copies.
:-(
People ordering now will get delivery in 10 business days.
if you living in the US.
I would be happy to sign one for you,
and Bubba will also.

elbert:
Is this a new book or a rerelease of the first book? I bought several of the first book and would be interested if this one is different?

Its called a 'Picture Book' by the publisher, lots of bird photos.
The Publisher originally designed the format for childrens books, the Bird of the week stories with big(8.5x11) color illustrations.
Had to leave Celi,Chico and Cleo out of this one.

Bummer. I called Xlibris to see if I could get a copy before I come down on January 1 and they said it would be mid-January delivery. Maybe I'll drop by and see if you've ordered extra copies since I'll be around until mid-January, Elbert! Otherwise, I'll have to wait until my next trip to get that autograph! I have a couple of avid bird-watchers joining me this time and I know they would've enjoyed some insight from Bubba.

Debbie

meanwhile I'll help Bubba practice his autograph.

congratulations to Bubba and Elbert. I also think there should be a book signing party!
Keep us informed if Oprah puts it in her book club....

Book signing on Rosario Island? Bubba paw prints? Sign me up for at least two books. I may even be talked into one of your early morning boat rides to go birding.

can i just trade in my ratty old blue copy for an upgrade???

does one come free with a tow???

Elbert, congratulations! You did it while living in paradise! I know Bubba did most of the work.

I’m ordering my copy today and will also ask for an autograph when I see you.

The Island Ferry just dropped off a package to the end of my dock with the hard back edition of the new book in it. It only took 8 weeks in the mail. First time I've seen the finally edit in print.
frigging awesome, I'm a little more than excited.I had a lot of worries about how the color reproduction was going to be but for nothing, It looks great, what a relief.
I'm smiling big.
What to write for the next book.....hummmmmmmmmmmmmmm

VERY COOL BRO!!!!!! way to go!!!! can't wait to see it!!!!

yes! congrats!!!

elbert, can we buy one on our next trip to AC?

Congratulations Bubba!!! Oh, and Elbert too....

How much are they - are they really US$61??

You know the answer Peter...just trying to raise an issue?

No I don't Jesse - if it is $61 it seems an awful lot of money. I'd like to buy one, but.....

A negative post for every thread eh?

For those that cannot spend the money on the printed version - I am sure Elbert has a website that is bound to feature similar material and he posts plenty of photos on this website. Enjoy.

Elbert, I got my hardcover book last night (ordered on 12/31 and received 1/12). It is GREAT! I scanned and looked at pictures and started to read. Super stories and I'm only to page 14. Dang, I never knew Bubba could fly an airplane.
Excellent work and worth the price! But, I am not going to "disrespect" it. I guess I should have ordered the paperback. Now, I just need Bubba's paw print and you autograph. Please check with Bubba and see when he will be available for the official ceremony!

Congratulations!

I'm donating 10 copies signed by Bubba to this Radio-thon Saturday at 3:00, Bubba signed 15 books the other night, what a mess he can make with ink and paw print.
The library is sponsoring a Radio-thon on January 31 to show off the expanded and improved library facility (below BTB's office by
Esmeralda Park). They are also raising funds for resource materials and expenses for offering a two week summer Arts Program for children through the library.
The Radio-thon will have music, storytelling, drama,speakers. Actually, there will be three book signings happening (two of them human).

I'm going the library radio-thon now.
They have 10 books Bubba signed and they will go to who ever gives a donation to the library during the radio-thon this afternoon.
Want a book ,show up and give a donation to the library and its yours, Peter this is where you can get a deal on an expensive book :-)

I gave a donation to the library the other day and they have lost the cheque. I hope it turns up.

I would like to get a copy of your book Elbert, and have it autographed - but I am not going out in this weather - yuck!

Maybe the library will set up a booth at the food fest next weekend to raise more funds. Today is probably a bust.

I was at the library before you got there, Elbert, and like Amanda I'm not going out again!

elbert,, i got my signed copy!
thank you,, and bubba too!!
excellent job!

Barn, Your welcome and thanks for your help.
Jesse thank you also for putting up the ad in the San Pedro Daily today.
I left a box of books with Kate at Sew What,(shes on the library committee) in town in case any fair weather stragglers still want to donate to the library for a copy.
Bubba signed the whole box full, then walked on the carpet :-(

It's HIS HOUSE..isn't it?
