January 17, 2024 - Lesser Antillean Saltator (Saltator albicollis) Found on the islands of Guadeloupe, Dominica, Martinique, St Lucia, and sometimes Saint Kitts and Nevis in the Lesser Antilles, these birds in the tanager family live in mangroves, forests, and scrubby habitats. Usually foraging in pairs, they eat fruits, buds, flowers, and other plant foods, as well as some insects. They build deep cup-shaped nests from twigs and leaves in bushes or trees where females lay clutches of two or three eggs. Both parents feed the chicks.
