Description
The twin-island nation of Trinidad and Tobago combines representative South American bird families, as well as the characteristic endemism of tropical islands, making it a uniquely engaging place to observe and learn about avian life. Motmots–including the endemic Trinidad Motmot–manakins, antbirds, ovenbirds, woodcreepers, toucans, and numerous hummingbirds are joined by migratory songbirds during the winter. The iconic Scarlet Ibis is a standout among the many wetland birds common in places like the world-renowned Asa Wright Nature Centre. To help you sift through the nearly 500 birds that have been recorded in “T & T,” we have created this beautifully illustrated resource. Featuring 140 familiar species, it includes an ecoregion map showing top bird-finding hotspots and learning sites. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is the ideal companion for educators, learners, naturalists, and birders who wish to sharpen their identification skills and forge a deeper connection with Trinidad and Tobago’s fascinating birds. Made in the USA.
