¡Felicitaciones! I look forward to sharing the book with our Spanish-speaking library patrons. By the way, do you do book tours? We would love to have you visit our library in Florida.
Many thanks,

LOL – I’d love to buy this for the Spanish-speaking woman who took my entrance fee five years ago at John Pennekamp State Park in Key Largo, FL. I’ll never in my life forget the conversation.
Me: “Excuse me, do you have any bird checklists?”
Her: “Eh?”
Me: “Bird checklists? (realising she barely spoke English) I’m. here. to. look. at. birds.”
Her: “Burdz?”
Me: (sigh) Yes. Biiirrrrdddsss.”
Her: “Um…no…no we don’ have burdz ‘ere.”
At this point, I’m just about to roll my eyes out of their sockets. The Keys are stinking covered in birds. I’m pretty sure I can see ten species from where I’m sitting in my car.
2nd Ranger (who just walked in): “No, wait, here you go!” (Hands me a checklist)
It worked out okay, though. I got my lifer White-crowned Pigeon on that trip. lol
Good idea! I´d like to buy this nice little book for a couple of new yorkers we receive every year in our lodge in the rainforest in Costa Rica. In spite of their interest, they don´t know any spanish, so I have to translate everything for them. It would be a good gift for these keen north american birders, and very useful for them (if they learn some basic spanish first, I hope they can do it, it´s not too difficult).
But next time try to say “bird” with english accent, maybe she understands you better!
