Warszewiczia coccinea
Shama Thrush
Wild Cockatoos
Also known as Chaconia or Wild Poinsettia, this colorful tree with red in�orescences is the national �ower of Trinidad and Tobago.
Originally from South Asia, this curious bird is often found along the trail and is not shy around visitors!
No, it’s not pterodactyls. That screeching is actually Indonesian cockatoos, including the Salmon-Crested, Umbrella, and Go�n Cockatoos.
A historic station no longer in use. Currently haunted.
Make sure to walk through theBromeliad Garden!
