The Woodbourne Shorebird Refuge, on the border of St Philip and Christ Church, opened in 2009 as a result of an initiative by BirdLife International, The Barbados National Trust and concerned environmentalists on the island. The refuge provides bird enthusiasts with a chance to observe the safe haven for the thousands of species of shorebirds and rare birds that pass through Barbados during winter migration across the Atlantic. For more information, please contact Mr. Wayne Burke of Birdlife International, who is running the project at 433-2616
