Adults at Grande Riviere, Trinidad, 1 April 1999 (A-B) and 13 July 2001 (C). Photos © by Harry Lehto (A-B) and Floyd Hayes (C). Note the emarginated primaries, responsible for the loud drumming characteristic of this genus, of the bird in flight (B). This species is seen most reliably at Grande Riviere, where a small population has persisted for many years.
