It’s always interesting when a bird you think you are familiar with gets shown to you in a whole different way. Take these two great photos the world-renowned Arthur Morris took during a brief stay at Asa Wright Nature Centre in Trinidad this June. The first is of a White-Bearded Manakin, the second of a Golden-headed Manakin. Both have leks on property at the Centre.

If you want to learn a great deal about bird photography, there are few Better places that Arthur’s Birds as Art blog.

It’s always a tricky question: How do you start a blog? What do you start it with?

Fortunately an easy answer made itself obvious.

We’ll start with a repost from a blogger that’s been doing it longer and better than us: Mike Bergin at 10,000 Birds.

He says all we’d like to say about the wonderful place that is the Asa Wright Nature Centre, and more . . .

A cherished handful of Central and South American locations enjoy international renown as absolutely mandatory destinations for adventurous bird watchers and nature lovers. Asa Wright Nature Centre in Trinidad holds a prominent position on that list of luminaries. As a card-carrying member of this famed ecolodge’s target audience, I’ve always knownI would eventually visit. Now I’ve finally spent time at Asa Wright, I understand why. [MORE.]
