Your gateway to 10,936 bird species
This is the website of Charles R Stubbs, producer of birding Companion Guides. With the exception of Part-by-Part Companion Guides, all titles are available as Kindle eBooks, which can be accessed and read on any device that has Amazon Kindle Reader capability.

The multiple All the World’s Birds Companion Guides series help birders and bird lovers keep up with the rapidly changing taxonomy; new, split and lumped species; distributions; and relative rarity of birds. From 2026 onwards, ATWB Companion Guides are based on The Global Avian Checklist (AviList), an open access resource maintained by the AviList Core Team. The AviList is hosted on a dedicated website, which provides access to the checklist in two formats. To read more about All the World’s Birds (ATWB) Companion Guides click here.
Charles R Stubbs writes a blog that informs subscribers about ATWB eBooks and summarizes changes that occur in the AviList (and previously, published versions of the IOC bird list). You can access and sign up to the blog here.
