THINGS TO DO<br />

Bluff, <strong>Cayman</strong> Brac<br />

CULTURAL & TOURS<br />

<strong>BRAC</strong> PARROT RESERVE<br />

The Brac Parrot Reserve is dominated by pristine,<br />

ancient woodlands on a very rough and rocky<br />

terrain. A great diversity of native trees, including<br />

species not present on Grand <strong>Cayman</strong> or Little<br />

<strong>Cayman</strong>, support breeding woodland birds such<br />

as the Red-Legged Thrush, White Crowned Pigeon<br />

(“Bald Pate”) and Black-Whiskered Vireo. Parrots<br />

are often seen and heard around the Reserve,<br />

especially in the early morning and late afternoon.<br />

In the winter months, the Reserve is filled with<br />

neotropical migrant song birds, escaping cold<br />

northern climates. For more information contact the<br />
