how we go about birding....!
We are a fairly experienced, patient
bird guide easy to get along with, and
speaks English as a second language.
I prefer any type of bird - forest,
grassland and water birds - in lowland,
foothill and highlands terrain. I am the
type who will stay with a flock or
follow an army ant swarm until I see
every bird and will never get enough
going after the same species until
everyone within the group is satisfied.
And also enjoy wild life in general.
We are not big "check-lister", but for
the record I do keep a day list of
observed and heard birds and will share
it with participants. And if I see a
“liffer” you will noticed – there are
many out there for me too.
I'm in a continuous learning process,
sometimes I refer to a field book for
double checking field marks, silhouette
or for the correct name or call. I don't
need to see every bird that I hear and
don't like the overuse of playback.
I would rather simply hear a bird and
not see it rather than spend a half an
hour calling it in with a tape recorder
unless it is an specific “target bird”
and with participants consensus. We are
physically fit, and can walk long hours
if necessary.
On tour, depending itinerary go
from 6:00 am till noon (all morning
tour) follow by a lunch break and
more birding during the afternoon (all
day tour). And when possible, a couple
hours of owling will end a good day!
Participants will dictate the rhythm.
Consecutive days of
birding is also available and depending on your interest we take you into
Central Panama, foothills close to Panama city and into Chiriquí and Darien is
also possible.
I look forward to hear from you and help plan a comfortable birding trip to
Panama with all your questions answered before any commitment. Let me know your
expectations, limitations, accommodation and meal preference. We are here to
help and start immediately from your inquire info@panamabirdguide.com
Best regards!
