Belize Birding Festival | First Annual Belize Birding Festival – Belizing.com

A recap of the first annual Belize Birding Festival. Bird watching is fast becoming a popular activity in Belize, for both visitors and locals alike. To date, over five hundred and eighty bird species have been recorded in the country. Although Belize is considered a small country, it is certainly blessed with big birding. Belizing.com was proud to be in attendance at the first ever Belize Birding Festival, held in Belmopan City on October 27, 2018.

…And the bird watching continues! These lovely flying creatures are everywhere in Belize, so no matter where you go, you are guaranteed to spot one of our five hundred-plus species of avifauna. Continuing our quest to increase our bird count on eBird, we went birding with San Ignacio Resort Hotel. San Ignacio Resort Hotel is a very historic establishment in Belize, especially for those who grew up in the Cayo District. They describe themselves as the only jungle in town where you can experience birding that you can’t get anywhere else.
