Bridled quail-doves are resident in the IBA

A 205 ha area, encompassing the forested western slopes of the peak from an altitude of 300 m to the summit, has been recognised as an Important Bird Area (IBA) by BirdLife International because it supports populations of bridled quail-doves, green and purple-throated caribs, Antillean crested hummingbirds, Caribbean elaenias, scaly-breasted and pearly-eyed thrashers and Lesser Antillean bullfinches.[1]
