Faraaz Abdool is a published wildlife photographer, writer, and international tour guide.
Hailing from Trinidad and Tobago, Faraaz's deep connection to nature led him to shift from a career in engineering to focus on wildlife and habitat preservation.
His book 'Casual Birding in Trinidad and Tobago' not only showcases the region's bird species through his stunning photography but also provides valuable insights into their behavior and habitats.
Through his work, Faraaz aims to evoke a sense of purity and connection to the natural world, encouraging others to embrace a mindful and observant approach to nature.
