The same goes for Panama, Nicaragua, Honduras, and other places along their migration routes. From the Amazon to Ohio, protecting birds also means protecting habitat through supporting and promoting sustainable use from home to the foothills of Colombia. Yeah, I daresay those birds do pass through Costa Rica in the millions.

The first concern is the most important, the vital knowledge, because we can’t protect and preserve populations of migratory bird species if we don’t know where they stop to rest and refuel. With all of that bird movement going on, one can’t help but wonder where and how often they stop. What do they eat?

That changes in Costa Rica, where the vulnerable Great Curassow is easily seen at several protected sites. In Costa Rica, it’s pretty common and easy to see in and near just about any protected forest. This avian celebrity is the Black Guan , an endemic that only haunts the highland forests of Costa Rica and western Panama.

If this is Chestnut-headed Oropendola is from Panama, should I worry that it’s going to steal my camera after I digiscoped its picture? btw, I promote equality in all ways, but I don’t bend over backwards protecting any either.&# I’ve had stuff stolen before. They don’t do anything without me watching them.&#

The conservation need is urgent: great attention has rightly been paid to Brazil’s Amazonian rainforest but not enough resources have gone to the Pantanal and the Cerrado, of which only 4% and 5%, respectively, are protected. Thanks for visiting!

If I’m not mistaken, it took more than twenty years for Ridgely’s Guide to the Birds of Panama to come out in a Spanish edition. Book placement in schools would be targeted to sites in the vicinity of national parks and other protected areas which act as a stronghold for a large percentage of the country’s precious avifauna.

At the end of 2007, the World Society for the Protection of Animals selected the McKee Project to work on spay/neuter programs in Guatemala. Although they are best known for their work in Costa Rica, they also work in Mexico and Panama. This is a great group that I've spotlighted before.

Fortunately, nowadays, there are protected areas and efforts to establish biological corridors that provide more hope for the endangered Great Green Macaw, and other species. But, if you want to go further afield, fear not, there is some wonderful lowland forest birding up near Nicaragua and down south by Panama as well.

Protected area or not, there has been change in the air, and we need to see how the birds are responding. Most, like the Black-thighed Grosbeak, are also endemic to Costa Rica and Panama. We have counts in gardens, counts in parks, and count routes in many parts of the country.

Donna had an embarrassment of riches to choose from: It’s a tie between the Willow Ptarmigan in New York State, the confiding Rufous-vented Ground-Cuckoo in Panama, and Hoopoe and African Penguin in South Africa. Once endangered, they lead happy, protected lives, oblivious to the tourists who love them.
