This is a private farm that is serene and peaceful. There is nature that surrounds us, unlike the city towns of the North coast. We enjoy it tremendously and respect all living creatures and animals. Some of what you might see flying are Hispaniola hummingbirds,woodpeckers, palmchats, white egrets, herrings, quail-doves, broad-billed tody's, mocking birds and thrashers just to name a few.
