Joe -- You really need to get the Birds of Trinidad and Tobago, by ffrench, although most of the birds are also in Birds of Venezuela (but very hard to sort out from the myriad others in the book). Are you also going to Trinidad? It is only a 15-minute and cheap hop over and there are many species found there that are not on Tobago. Have a great trip, Gail Mackiernan gail@umdd.umd.edu
