We found this turtle nesting on the recently expanded beach on 7th Sept 2023😆 Three other turtle nests also hatched in the last week👏

We are really pleased that the works we did on “Turtle Beach” have made it possible for so many turtles to nest this year💪

Stay tuned for the next turtle nesting report🤗✨

🕺New resting areas🕺

A few months ago, with the guidance by experts, we did tree-cutting on Pigeon Island National Landmark for specific conservation purposes, including turtle conservation, preservation of historic structures and visitor safety🌳

After the assessments of the trees, several of the trees were identified as dead, diseased, dangerously weak or dangerously positioned and a hazard to patrons😵

In addition, did you know that the Casuarina, or Australian Pine creates dense mats underground and creates sterile, acidic soils? 🤔
These characteristics prevent sea turtles from nesting & hatchling, and growth of other plants🐢😨

Now with the pruned trees, our ground staffs have made lovely benches where visitors can rest, have lunch or enjoy the view of Caribbean Sea😍✨

We look forward to seeing you at Pigeon Island National Landmark😊
Post your pic on social media with #PigeonIslandNationalLandmark👍

Antigua Racer Census on York Island, Antigua🐍🌟

Antigua racers are endemic but because of the introduction of invasive mammals (rats and mongooses) in the 1800s, they suffered a drastic decline😵
Most of the Antigua racers alive today have been implanted with microchip tags for security purposes and to monitor their growth and survival😮 (Reference: Fauna & Flora)

Mr. Trinity Hunte, a Saint Lucia National Trust ranger, joined in Antigua Racer Census on York Island, Antigua😊

He assisted and got very useful training in Racer morphometrics, pit tagging, catching and handling racers👏

We will continue to update information about racers🤓 Stay tuned🌟
