Hi All, Because a few folks have expressed interest in birding in Colombia, I thought I'd post a few general things here on the listserve. The Cayuga Bird Club just took a 10-day trip there in December 2021. We concentrated in a small area of the Central Andes.
Colombia is the birdiest country in the world, with more than 1,900 species occurring there. There are many different habitat types and very cool places to go. But, the best thing to do is plan to focus on one small part of the country because there is such diversity in a small area, and because the three Andean mountain ranges make travel somewhat slow and difficult. Here are the websites of a couple Colombian friends of mine who run bird tours there: https://www.birdingbybus.com/ https://www.manakinnaturetours.com/ Also, if there is enough interest, the Cayuga Bird Club could organize another trip there (we work with Holbrook Travel who uses Manakin Tours as their in-country group in Colombia). If you want more specific information, you can contact me directly off the list. Thanks Jody Also, Jody W. Enck, PhD Conservation Social Scientist, and Founder of the Sister Bird Club Network 607-379-5940 On Fri, Sep 23, 2022 at 3:07 PM Muhammad Arif <mna...@live.com> wrote: > I'm interested in this too.
