Out of the approximately 26 species of snipes worldwide, two have been recorded on Trinidad. During these months every Wilson’s Snipe would be busy with breeding in northern North America. On Trinidad it took me some more time until I saw my first snipe. Any snipe is a good snipe, they say. How can one not love that face?

But at times, in the breeding season especially, the same birds would belt some of the most complex and absolutely juicy notes that made me reconsider my feelings toward them. Back in Trinidad, both Spectacled Thrush and Cocoa Thrush would nest in our backyard. They seem to be a bit angry for the most part. Wise creatures.

White-striped Woodcreeper : Faraaz Abdool recently wrote about Trinidad and Tobago’s wonderful Woodcreepers , and this one is the Woodcreeper of western Mexico’s pine-oak forests. Slate-throated Redstart : This lovely little bird is our most common resident (breeding) warbler, and in certain places you will hear it EVERYWHERE.

Horned Guan by Adam Riley Mike was tempted to go with a guan as well, since he had the good fortune to encounter the Trinidad Piping Guan in the only country it can be found. Secretive, silent and undetectable outside of its breeding season, found only in the U.S. Definitely one of the highlights of my birding career!
