Cuba is the largest, best preserved, and perhaps least well-known island in the Caribbean, at least to U.S. birders. Native avifauna include over 300 species including 25 endemics and 17 endangered species. In March 2012 Elliotte Harold visited Cuba for two weeks with the National Audubon Society. He'll recount that trip, and talk about the birds, people, culture, environment and economy of Cuba today.
