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 />
<strong>Cayman</strong> Brac District of the National Trust.<br />
