Great Kiskadee / Pitangus sulphuratus, Asa Wright Nature Centre, Trinidad


A very grainy photo, but I didn't get many chances to see and photograph a Great Kiskadee on this holiday, so I was happy to get anything. This one was seen at the Asa Wright Nature Centre, on the island of Trinidad, on 20 March 2017. The rest of today's photos were all taken on Day 5 of our trip, 17 March 2017, which included a lovely lunch at the Brasso Seco Visitor Facility, prepared for us by local people who work there. Most enjoyable! This day was an all-day Blanchisseuse Road field trip in the Northern Range.
"Great Kiskadees are boisterous in both attitude and color: a black bandit’s mask, a yellow belly, and flashes of warm reddish-brown when they fly. Kiskadees sit out in the open and attract attention with incessant kis-ka-dee calls and sallying flights. Despite their small U.S. range, this is one of the most widespread flycatchers in the Western Hemisphere." From AllAboutBirds.

"Plum in the middle of the lush rainforest that smothers the Northern Range, Brasso Seco is a quiet little village that once made its living from growing cocoa and other crops. Today, it has reinvented itself as a low-key base for nature lovers in search of hiking, birdwatching, cocoa-cultivation tours or just a bit of insight into the slow, slow pace of life in rural Trinidad" From Lonely Planet.
