Sorry I can't help identify it but what ever it may be, it is a beautiful bird. Thanks for posting it.

I spent some time today looking online trying to find some information for you. Haven't found this bird on any of the Trinidad-Tobago bird sites but I had to say I was drooling over the many strikingly beautiful birds you have there!

I can't help you but I just want to say that I really enjoyed looking at this photo, it's quite lovely. And I love the name of this tree, Sugar Apple!

Did you look at Summer Tanager? They are there, this time of year.

Default Is it Red Breasted robin?

Hi Guy's,
I did send this image to an bird lady here and she thinks it is probably a silver beaked tanager a female.They are native to this area and they are not migrants.
She said that was beautiful photograph.

it is too rufous for a summer tanager, and the beak is also too black..

I am not ver y familiar with teh birds of Trinidad and Tobago, but I would go for either a female tachyphonus Tanager (most probably T. rufus = White lined Tanager) , or either a female Ramphocelus tanager, or a Habia tanager... But I would stay with White-lined T
