These books, or (field guides) helped me ID some of the birds in the Virgin Islands. I make it a habit to obtain at least one good guide to help with the varieties of some of many birds I come across considering some look so much alike. They also help with new birds that are not in any other areas (Endemic).
BIRDS of the Eastern Caribbean: (Peter Evans)
ISBN 978 0 333 52155 7 (2015)
This book is more of a general description book but misses some of the pictures for birds. Photos do not overly help with colour variations of different species. good for general bird watchers.

ISBN 978 0 691 14780 2 (2010)
This book is the best to be found and has good description but mostly easy to follow colour pictures. it shows colour of breeding, non-breeding, sexes, and in some cases wing colours like for hawks etc.
