Dry forest
Visits
- 2025-03-28: After our visit to the rainforest, we drove back to the coast in order to look for the endemic St. Lucia Thrasher. We could hear them calling off in the forest, but we did not get a look at them at all. We thought there might be a restaurant in the area, but everything listed online was shut. The gas station was providing some quality snacks, however.
- 2025-03-29: After not seeing the thrasher the previous day, we went back the next morning for another try. After a long while, I finally got a quick glimpse of the thrasher perched in some shrubbery.
