Trinidad & Tobago, March 20-29, 2009

Sorry this trip is full

This exotic Caribbean birding destination has been a favorite for many years. Based at the world-renowned Asa Wright Nature Center and Lodge, a 200-acre wildlife sanctuary in Trinidad's rain-forested northern mountain range, and at the charming Blue Waters Inn in Tobago , birders will travel to several unique natural areas on both islands. While sipping your morning coffee or afternoon rum punch on the verandah of the Asa Wright Nature Center, you may not even need binoculars to see 25 to 30 species visit the feeding station. Excursions to view red-bellied macaw, scarlet ibis, oilbird and common potoo are highlights. On Tobago , your days combine swimming, snorkeling and cruising in the glass-bottomed boat. Daily birding targets species such as red-billed tropicbird, red-footed and brown boobies, manakins, jacamars, honeycreepers and more.
