* Heard only

This list is probably slightly out of taxonomic order. Sorry for this
indiscretion. I was using Harris' Birds of Galapagos and as those of you
who have used this book know, it is quite unwieldy in this respect.

If anyone wants more specific information about where these birds were
seen feel free to respond with questions.
