   Our Caribbean 
 Birding & Nature Tours 
in 2011

enjoyable tours with West Indies birds:
endemics, specialties, rarities

Focus on Nature Tours has been conducting birding tours on islands in the West Indies in the Caribbean for nearly 2 decades.
In Puerto Rico, there have been 27 FONT tours. In the Dominican Republic, 17. In Saint Lucia, 15. In Saint Vincent, 10. In Dominica, 6. In Jamaica, 10. In the Cayman Islands, 4.

On all the islands that we visit, our aims are to see as many of the endemic and specialty birds as we can, and to have a most enjoyable time doing so.

There is available from FONT a publication listing over 350 species of birds that have been found during our Caribbean tours, noting where and when they have been found, along with information about subspecies and local names on particular islands. The status of rarities is noted, along with info about birds that formerly occurred in the region. 
Let us know if you'd like to receive a copy.
