From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Conception Island is a small island (.603 km²) in the Seychelles 2 km west of Mahé. Conception contained a coconut plantation until the mid 1970s; today it is uninhabited.
Recently the island has been created as a wildlife reserve. It is the home of the extremely rare Seychelles white-eye and other birds such as the Seychelles kestrel, Seychelles blue pigeon and the Malagasy turtle dove. It also has two species of gecko.
