Join one of our in-house bird specialists for an early morning bird monitoring session. Belize has approximately 600 bird species, and our Golden Stream Corridor Preserve is home to almost half of them.
Follow the trail and listen and look out for some of the 200+ birds that make the Golden Stream Corridor Preserve home, recording them as you go. See if you can spot Belize’s national bird – the keel-billed toucan as well as the ornate hawk-eagle, bat falcon, swallow-tailed kite, yellow-headed parrot, hummingbirds, kingfishers, woodpeckers, tanagers and many flycatchers! We will stop and listen to calls and seek to identify birds moving between trees as they feed in the morning, recording the species as we go.
We will follow an established ranger patrol trail but you can expect to get muddy and hot during this birding encounter. So what better way than to finish off with a cool dip in Golden Stream before returning to our field center for late morning refreshments.
After your birding adventure, you can update your eBird list over the wifi at Ya’axché’s field station.
You can also inquire about birding on a farm with a local Maya farmer!
