Fork-tailed Flycatcher Tyrannus savana

Fork-tailed Flycatcher in Tobago

One normally sees the Fork-tailed Flycatcher around dusk flying back towards the mainland, as it is a daily visitor from South America. Usually found in groups I came across this group feeding in a bamboo patch along with Caribbean Martins, swifts & other flycatchers taking advantage of flying ants hatching from the damp bamboo.

Migrant shorebirds - Sanderlings (Calidris alba) in Trinidad & Tobago

Migrant shorebirds I find to be delightful, really enjoy photographing them and just being around them. Shorebirds such as the Sanderling generally work their way down the East coast of America, those that land up in Tobago mostly make the flight in single leg, some however stop over in the Lesser Antilles. Sanderlings are often seen in small groups here and quite a large number appear to move with loose flocks of various other shorebirds such as Ruddy Turnstones, Black bellied plovers and of course other Sandpipers.

Blue-grey Tanager & Tropical Mockingbird

Two birds with one shot. Well it is a small Island 26 miles long by 8 miles wide, so one can expect to share the odd branch here and there. Both birds common in suburban areas and light woodland. Bird photography from Tobago, Trinidad & Tobago, West Indies.
