Governor Michael Gore Bird Sanctuary Expands

The Governor Michael Gore Bird Sanctuary (referred to locally as “Governor’s Pond”), situated in Spots-Newlands, about three miles east of George Town in the Cayman Islands, is home to more than 60 species of land and water birds. Around twenty-five percent of the birds native to the Caymans are found in this small, but vital, fresh water wetland. In recognition of the value of the sanctuary, the National Trust for the Cayman Islands has recently extended its boundaries to incorporate an additional acre.
