Water bird and shorebird counts in the province of Matanzas, Cuba / J. Paul Goossen ... [et al.].: CW69-5/170E-PDF
"Counts of water birds and shorebirds were made in the province of Matanzas in Cuba during 14-21 February 1990. Forty-three species and at least 2246 individuals were recorded. The relatively few individuals seen suggest that, at least in February, narrow shores, which are subject to small tidal fluctuations, and drying inland conditions, contribute to unfavourable habitat for shorebirds and water birds. Extensive surveys of coastal and wetland habitats at different times of the year are needed to identify the archipelago's critical staging, wintering and breeding sites"--Abstract.
