After moving to Trinidad in August 2002, I quickly discovered that the island is a birder's paradise.  The diversity of birds has sparked my own interest and the images below depict the species I've found so far.  Some of these species also appear on my Birds of Tobago page and more bird pictures appear on the Pointe-a-Pierre Wild Fowl Trust page.  I will continue to update this gallery with new species and new images.  Please let me know if I have made identification errors! My email is hillj@orst.edu.
