Saint Lucia is very accessible being only 27 miles long and 14 miles wide and is probably one of the most important of the Lesser Antilles as it holds five single island endemics.
This Caribbean island is home to the magical Piton mountains, lush landscapes, unspoilt rainforests and palm-fringed beaches.
Of the 167 species normally present we saw 61 but our maim targets during our two weeks trip was to see and photograph the five endemics.
These were:- St Lucia Warbler
St Lucia Black Finch
St Lucia Parrot
St Lucia Pewee
St Lucia Oriole
This Web is a photographic record of a wildlife/birding trip with a soupcon of bacchanalian activity coupled with a moderate level of scenic appreciation and a slight cultural diversion when appropriate. After landing in the south of the island we travelled to our base in the north from where we made daily outings including catamaran trips to selected wildlife locations
