Saint Vincent and the Grenadines are an interesting destination for birdwatchers, too, as there are not only two endemic bird species, but also more than ten species of birds that are endemic to the Lesser Antilles, living not just on a single island. St. Vincent is of volcanic origin, wooded and reaches an altitude of more than 1200 m (La Soufrière). Most interesting for visitors is the 'Vermont Forest Reserve', but many of the same species of birds are also found in the area around Mount St. Andrew. The Grenadines are more suitable for studying seabirds. It is worth mentioning that on the Grenadines the subspecies 'alsiosa' of the American Yellow Warbler is endemic. The best travel time is April to May, the hurricane season lasts from June to November. This multilingual (en, fr, es, de, ja, cn) bird guide introduces the entire bird life of St. Vincent and the Grenadines in color. Where available, links to the valuable websites of UNESCO, BirdLife International and the Ramsar Organization are provided, which characterize the country and help to find the best sites for birdwatching.
