  • The Home of the Oil-Bird The oilbird (Steatornis caripensis), locally known as the guácharo, is a bird species found in the northern areas of South America including the Caribbean island of Trinidad. Nesting in colonies in caves, oilbirds are nocturnal feeders on the fruits of the oil palm and tropical laurels. They are the only nocturnal flying fruit-eating birds in the world (the kakapo, also nocturnal, is flightless). They forage at night, with specially adapted eyesight. However they navigate by echolocation in the same way as bats, one of the few birds to do so. They produce a high-pitched clicking sound of around 2 kHz that is audible to humans from the The royal natural history edited by Richard Lydekker, Volume IV published in 1895

  • Male Plumed basilisk (Basiliscus plumifrons) camouflaged amongst foliage. This lizard is found in the tropical forests of Central America. It is famed for its ability to run on two legs on water, which has earned it the alternative name of the Jesus (or Jesus Christ) lizard. It does this thanks to the toes on its hind legs, which have long scales on their edges, widening their surface area. When running on its hind legs it can reach speeds of around 12 kilometres per hour on land or water. The plumed basilisk feeds on insects, spiders, fish, birds and snakes, and also flowers and fruits. It can reach a length of around 80 centimetres, with males being larger than females.
