Jamaican birds: Jamaican Tody









The tiny, cute, exquisite endemic Jamaican Tody, the type species of tody, is perhaps rather similar to its cogeners from elsewhere in the Caribbean, but none the less handsome for it. This teeny (only the same length as a Goldcrest, but with a long bill and tail!) coraciiform is probably my favourite Jamaican bird.
