Guadeloupe Full-Day Private Birding with Anthony Levesque
A full-day private Guadeloupe birding route with Anthony Levesque for Guadeloupe Woodpecker, Lesser Antillean specialties and route-dependent wetland or coastal birds.
About this tour
This full-day private birding tour gives Anthony Levesque more time to combine Guadeloupe's key birding habitats and target a broader set of island and Lesser Antillean specialties.
The route can be shaped around Guadeloupe Woodpecker, Forest Thrush, Lesser Antillean Saltator, Lesser Antillean Flycatcher, Brown Trembler, Scaly-breasted Thrasher, Antillean Euphonia, Plumbeous Warbler, hummingbirds, Caribbean Elaenia, Lesser Antillean Pewee and shorebird or wetland interests where conditions allow.
Guadeloupe has one strictly endemic bird and a strong set of West Indian endemic species; a full day gives more time to look for a wider mix of these island specialties.
Final route, pickup, vehicle plan, lunch handling, target priorities and current availability are confirmed after enquiry.
