Volunteering provides a very different experience to tourism though. In Belize I cruised above reefs few people had ever seen. There is no feeling in the world like knowing your helping something you care about, whether its sharks or puffins, protecting forests or reefs, advancing science or communities.

At the recent Swarovski Social Media Summit in Arizona, Nate proselytized passionately for the program that both manages your sightings and contributes them to science. In fact, experience proved that the process is actually way more cumbersome and time-consuming than it should be.

But my experiences in Belize and Honduras give me a good basis in the birds of the region and I have plenty of time to study and learn what to expect with the endemics. Having never birded in Mexico at all I was initially concerned about identifying the myriad species that can be seen.
