Psarocolius decumanus
Blackish bird with a tail which is bright yellow apart from two dark central feathers and red brown at the base of the tail. There are two narrow crests which is often difficult to see. The iris is blue and the long bill is whitish / pinkish.
We saw these in the botanical gardens near the mountain and the great Savannah. Port of Spain, Trinidad.
Awesome birds! Noisy! First we saw a few flying around and pecking on the floor. When I spotted some in the tree, two let me come quite close after one flew away and this one was allowing me to hang around a bit. I think it was a female as she did not seem to have the crest.
