Pigeon Point Beach - Tobago

I read on Caribbean Beat that a time long ago the area was home to wild pigeons until it made way for a coconut estate and hence the name Pigeon Point. The walk from Milford Road along Pigeon Point Road past Bago bar at Cable Bay is relaxing. The jetty is said to be one of the most photographed in the world. The beach often makes top ten lists. It is a location for weddings and photography and water sports. You pay a nominal fee to enter which goes towards the upkeep of the facilities.

Butterflies

Just some photos of butterflies in my yard. Any more I capture will be added to this blog post. High res downloads of these photos can be found here . If you are wondering is not any fancy camera or gear used. Just the cheapest Samsung A14 phone. I think my skill and eye for photography can be credited mostly for how these came out.

Early Morning Bush Walk - North Central Trinidad

Image
I am no stranger to long distance walking (between 5 km and 10 km). I woke up and decided I had the energy and I had never walked along to the end of Warren Road, heading West, which gives direct views of the Northern Range and Caroni plains and planes descending into Piarco airport. It is a narrow road, so be cautious, if you ever have to walk that road. It is agriculture and empty land on both sides for the first 1 km. My walk took me from Warren Road onto Ajodha Road and Munroe Road and then back to the Southern main road. These are some photos from that walk.

Bird Photography in Trinidad and Tobago

Image
So I started walking with my old (8+ years) point and zoom Nikon P90 in my knapsack when I go long distance walking. Sharpness, detail and colours will be lacking but I can still hone my skills. There are some areas I pass where I can catch sight of birds. I am amateur at birding and it has been on and off for me and I seem to have lost my Birds of Trinidad and Tobago  book (I had an older edition I bought in Nigel R Khan Tobago). Birds are majestic and make interesting subjects for photographing. Here are some recent shots I took. Also as part of this blog post I am creating a (work in progress) list of links showing birds of Trinidad and Tobago that can help with naming the birds you see. Did you know that there is a Trinidad & Tobago Bird Status & Distribution Committee  and what about this funny birding language, "patterns of avian vagrancy"? Read on one website that the number of bird species (in Trinidad and Tobago) is 468. Follow me on instagram or twitter to s...
