Heron Bibliography

The Bibliography of the Herons of the World has been assembled over many years, through the contribution of many individuals. HeronConservation particularly thanks Lynda Garrett of Patuxent Wildlife Research Center Library, USA, for her many contributions. This is a historical bibliography through 2011, designed to provide reference for articles not easily available elsewhere.

Please cite the Bibliography as: Kushlan, James, A., Year of Access, Bibliography of the Herons of the World, www.heronconservation.org/conservation-tools-and-resources/heron-bibliography/, Accessed day month year.
