GREEN-THROATED MANGO WITH TAIL SPREAD, CARONI NATIONAL PARK, TRINIDAD & TOBAGO

   This hummingbird was identified by our birding guide as a Green-throated Mango.  We have not added it to our Photographic Life List because it is not a recognizable photo, due to it being silhouetted.   However, I thought it was an interesting enough photo to put on the blog.

FEMALE BLACK-THROATED MANGO, BLUE WATERS INN, SPEYSIDE, TOBAGO, TRINIDAD & TOBAGO

WHITE-TIPPED DOVE, BLUE WATERS INN, SPEYSIDE, TOBAGO, TRINIDAD & TOBAGO

   We can ID this dove as a White-tipped Dove by its blue eye-ring,  yellow iris, red legs, black bill, brown upperparts and wings, whitish underparts, white forehead and rufous underwing coverts.  It should be noted that the eye-ring is typically red in most of the White-tipped Dove's range, but is blue in most of the Amazon, Northern South America and Trinidad & Tobago. 

   The White-tipped Dove is a new species to our Photographic Life List, which now stands at 591.

PALE-VENTED PIGEON, BLUE WATERS INN, SPEYSIDE, TOBAGO, TRINIDAD & TOBAGO

   We can ID this pigeon as a Pale-vented Pigeon by its overall dull pink wash, dull purple head, gray lower underparts and reddish eye ring.

   The Pale-vented Pigeon is a new species to our Photographic Life List, which now stands at 590.
