This review is from: Field Guide to
the Birds of Trinidad and Tobago (Paperback)
Good if you're planning to visit Morne le Croix, Para junction, Manzanilla
beach, Bon Accord sewage ponds or some other classical bird haunt at Trinidad
and its sibling island Tobago. Not good if you simply plan to cruise the
carnival in Port of Spain or prefer the tranquility of your backyard in New
England. Yes, this is a field guide to things feathery and beaky on Trinidad
and Tobago, the Caribbean nation. I admit that I didn't like it (the field
guide, I mean). The illustrations are bad, especially if you are used to bird
books designed by Lars Jonsson. Yes, I know, I'm a spoiled White man! Still,
it's a pity Jonsson never took a trip to Manzanilla beach, it could have led to
some interesting pieces of artwork…
