Here are some images from this past week here in St. Lucia at various projects. It was a busy but fun week filled with crocodile eggs, conservation work at the pan and highschool in Khula, as well as good times at the creches and home based care and orphanage refurb projects. Lots of rain this week but I managed to get in a couple of good runs….now time for rest this weekend! Enjoy!

Sean, Nice record shots of the work … curious what the plan is for the hatchlings, and when that should happen. I LOVE the pictures of “play time” and Elsie the best. Great shots as always! The colours in “colouring” are brilliant! Very nice shot.

Your photography is truely amazing. How safe was it wading in that water? Why were you incubating the eggs? Are the crocs endangered?
As you can see I have lots of questions for you.
Keep safe
