Bird topography in Spanish (1 Viewer)

[Peter C.]

I am wondering if anybody out there can direct me to a image online that shows the names of bird parts in Spanish. I am trying to communicate with some Colombian birders, regarding the identity of a bird (about which I have mostly just got field notes) and think there may be some "crossed-wires" because I don't know the proper words in Spanish for common terms in bird topology.

I could just look up these words individually, of course, but there's no guarantee that I would find the correct form of a given word (think of all the possible meanings of a word like "cap" for instance.) A drawing, such as is used in the prefaces of most field guides, would be a lot more useful.

You can put in whole sentences in Google Translate Peter. Not sure this link will bring in what I typed but this is the page you would use.

Thanks, guys. It was weird, I tried a search just like that, all the images came up in English! Must be something in my browser settings....

If you put "ave topografia" into google.es or yahoo.es you come up with various possibilities.

There may also be a difference between Spanish and South American terminology so that may require you to look at other search engine countries.

I've checked a couple of them. As pointed above there maybe some differences with American spanish. These are ok for Spain spanish.
