Belize is a birdwatchers paradise and sure to transform those who have never been interested in sky dwellers into passionate aficionados of these fascinating, gorgeous creatures. It is estimated that Belize sustains over 500 species of birds. They are an explosion of colour, beauty, fascinating behaviour and sound. While it does require some tenacity to watch them in some of their habitats - particularly jungle locations where vegetation is thick - the rewards for tenacity, as always, are rich. If traipsing in the jungle isn't your thing, there's always the extraordinary Belize Bird Zoo. It's not just caged birds - they have created a habitat with the express purpose of attracting as wide a variety of wild bird species as possible. |
