Barbuda Lagoon - Frigate Bird Sanctuary

Look at all those birds and trees everywhere! I wonder what  they are?

 

These are mangroves - we have 5 species of mangrove trees and they are incredible plants. They harbour hundreds of species of animals, birds, fishes and other sea creatures.

 

Where is this? Guiana?

No this is our Frigate Bird Sanctuary in Barbuda.

 

But....

 

Did you know our last mangrove areas in Antigua and Barbuda  are threatened and could disappear?

 

We must all work together to make sure that our mangroves are saved for future generations of residents and tourists.
