The male and female are strikingly different, and are the perfect couple. I hardly see one without the other.
When the male takes flight, under his wings there is a flash of white, hence the name White-lined Tanager.

I watched for days as these male and female woodpeckers took turns feeding their young.
One stayed guard while the other fetched grubs. As the chicks got bigger, so did the food.
Woodpeckers nest in dead trees, and many birds will share the nests and return for years to come.

To have an all-access pass to the party when the buds freshly open and the tiniest flying insects, wasps and bees tango together with small hummingbirds, honeycreepers, tanagers, yellow orioles and crested oropendolas is truly a sight to behold. The Bois Flot tree is indeed the Tree of Life!

Bananaquits make the sweetest sounds, and yes, they do love ripe bananas! They flit about feeding on a buffet of fruit, and nectar from different flowers.
