Bird watching in St Kitts

These past two Sundays, I've been on two bird watching trips with a small group of persons from the St. Christopher Heritage Society and Ryan, an experienced bird watching enthusiast from Canada. We were able to see and identify quite a number of birds on thes trips. I will be posting information on the birds that we saw as well as some pictures I took of the areas where we went to look at these birds. I didn't get any pictures of the birds though. They just don't stay one place long enough for you to find them in the viewfinder and focus the shot. I'll probably need to get one of those pairs of binoculars with a digital camera.

For those of you who are interested in learning more about the types of birds you can expect to see in St Kitts and Nevis below are a list of some birdwatching books that are available from Amazon.

   

   


The book that we were using to identify the birds we saw was:
