Bird Watching in Guatemala

Second International Bird Watching Encounter

Since long-ago times, one of humanity’s greatest dreams has been to fly like birds and to soar away to other areas of the world. If you were a bird, where would you like to go?

Guatemala is a country the size of Ohio State with 700+ species of birds in over 80 families. The “poster” birds that can turn any human into a birdwatcher are widespread. Resplendent Quetzal, seven of the eight species of motmots found in Central America, endemic and exotic hummers, flashy manakins, and at least 13 species of parrots, including the Scarlet Macaw, fulfill tropical expectations. In a class by itself, the Horned Guan is the prime drawing card. Today, Guatemala´s mystical Mayan heritage remains vibrant and inspirational within the confluence of modern life and the colonial past.
