Legends & Folklore Of Birds: Hummingbirds - .
Hummingbirds in British Columbia folklore and in other First Nations cultures.
http://www.folklore.bc.ca/Hummingbirds.htm

Extractions: The American anthropologist Dr. George M. Foster, in , (1949) Maria Leach (ed.) New York, 1972, p.510 writes HUMMINGBIRD: A minor character in American Indian folktale and mythology. The northern Paiute Indians [U.S. Great Basin area] say that Hummingbird once filled his pants full of seeds and started on a journey to see what was beyond the sun. He ate only one seed a day, but had to turn back because his food gave out. He didn't see anything. In eastern Brazil, Hummingbird is the character who hoarded water so that the people had none at all until the Caingang and Botocudo Indians released it. Philip Drucker, on page 451 of The Northern and Central Nootkan Tribes [on the west coast of Vancouver Island] Smithsonian Institution Bureau of American Ethnology Bulletin 144, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, 1951 wrote Pages 472-549 of The Report of the 70th Meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science

Birds Of Trinidad & Tobago
birds of Trinidad Tobago. If you are fortunate, you may run into some of the less common birds such as the Tropical Parula, and the Violaceous Euphonia.
http://www.interlog.com/~barrow/

Extractions: Trinidad is the Southern most island of the Caribbean, located off the East coast of Venezuela, the two countries being separated by a channel which is not more than seven miles wide. As a result of its location, Trinidad and Tobago have a South American or neotropical fauna, as opposed to the other islands of the Caribbean whose bird life is predominately "Tropical North American". Its location also gives Trinidad the unique advantage of harbouring over 400 species of birds, making it one of the richest birding countries per square mile in the world. Dr. Russell Barrow , a renowned local photographer, has captured many of these species on film. In addition it also has an advantage over its South and Central American neighbours of having most of its 1200 square miles easily accessible by good roads and forest tracks, making for an easy and attractive alternative to the mainland's dense forests and inaccessible swamps. All the good birding areas are within a one to two hour drive from the capital city Port-Of-Spain or the Asa Wright Nature Centre which provides excellent accommodation for visiting birders.

Art Prints Of Tropical Birds By Avian Wildlife Artist, Carole Niclasse
Limited edition prints featuring tropical birds in their natural habitat. Paintings and drawings.
http://caroleniclasse.com/

Extractions: (Greenwinged Macaws) Carole Niclasse, avian wildlife artist, has recently released four signed and numbered, fine art prints featuring her favorite subjects: toucans, macaws and parrots. Each high quality giclee print, shows in great detail, the birds and their habitats. Moss on trees, a flitting butterfly visitor, and lush foliage contribute to a desirable collectors art print. Carole captures every detail of her tropical bird subjects and their daily life. Collectors of tropical bird artwork will appreciate her use of color and her realism in portraying these magnificent avian creatures in their tropical rainforest setting. It is my greatest wish that those who view my work will experience a sense of caring and respect for the beauty depicted, and if nothing else, help them to be aware of the necessity to preserve and nurture the habitats in which these creatures exist.
