St Lucia is the second largest of the Windward Islands with spectacular forests, lush vegetation, hot sulphur springs and the magnificent Pitons, twin volcanic peaks rising dramatically from the coastline. From a birders perspective, St. Lucia offers more endemic species than any other island with St Lucia Parrot, St Lucia Pewee, St Lucia Warbler, St Lucia Black Finch and St Lucia Oriole. The St Lucia Parrot, once numbering in the millions in the time of Columbus, now has a population of just a few hundred restricted to the central rainforest reserve.
