Product Description

Product Description

The Caribbean islands of Trinidad and Tobago provide a fascinating opportunity for anyone interested in natural history, particularly birds. Trinidad's position, a mere ten miles from the South American mainland, means that its flora and fauna are essentially continental by nature. This second edition has been completely revised and updated and features 106 species of birds.


From the Publisher

Richard ffrench is British by birth but has lived and worked for many years in Trinidad and Tobago where he was known locally as the 'Birdman'. He now lives in Scotland but returns to Trinidad from time to time.

Roger Neckles was born in Trinidad but spent his early years in England. Since returning to Trinidad he has dedicated his life to natural history photography winning many awards including the coveted 'Green Leaf Award' for his audio-visual work, in recognition of his contribution to environmental conservation and protection.

4.0 out of 5 stars A short colourful guide to the most common birds on T&T, 2 Jul 2001
By A Customer
This is a short, lightweight guide to the birds on Trinidad and Tobago and is a good buy for those who want to know a little bit about the bird life they will see. The book has a simple introduction to birds and bird watching and has a good collection of colour photographs of the birds that will become familiar to you on the islands. The birds featured in the book are arranged according to the type of habitat they are found in (gardens, forests etc) and this makes it very easy to use. The guide only covers a fraction of the total species of birds on trinidad and tobago so the more serious birder should invest in "A Guide to the Birds of Trinidad and Tobago" by the same author (although this colourful little book makes an excellent souvenir).

3.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable birds, 14 Mar 2009
If you're visiting Trinidad or Tobago and like to know what the birds are that are flitting in front of you, this is a useful guide. Most of the commonly seen birds are there. There are birds on Tobago that are not seen in Trinidad and vice-versa. Unless you are reasonably into birds, this is a good little guide. Personally I bought this and the Birds of Trinidad and Tobago Helm Guide[Martin Kenefick and others]. I found both useful, the real photos by Roger Neckles in the Richard Ffrench book being an additional help. If you are in this area, I do recommend going to the Asa Wright centre and Caroni Swamp, both in Trinidad. The first has brilliantly coloured birds and in the swamp you can see all the vivid scarlet ibis fly in to roost by late afternoon, a magnificent spectacle for anyone who enjoys wildlife. I enjoy bird photography and both books proved very useful. It is worth paying for a local guide on both islands as they'll point out birds you'll otherwise not notice.
