In this block, we will go in search of the most beautiful birds of Panama.
Some are rare, sometimes endemic, others are even mythical. One can think here of some renowned examples, the Resplendent Quetzal, the Harpy Eagle, the Sunbittern or others, not forgetting the 61 species of hummingbirds, some of which are endemic and one of them a great traveler.
We will also have articles to help you find them, photograph them, also specifying their distribution areas and sometimes indicating my favorite spots.
The articles are classified into two categories, one for articles dedicated to species and the other for miscellaneous articles (for example, my good deals, favorite spots or recommended tours).

From shore to shore, after five years of sailing, I arrived in the San Blas Archipelago in Panama. Here live indigenous people with strong ancestral traditions, the Kunas. I spent three years sharing their way of life and making friends.
A few walks in the forests of the nearby continent had given me a glimpse of the country’s rich wildlife.
In 2004, I permanently settled my sea bag, not far, on the Caribbean coast, in Portobelo, a small village with a great historical past.
After two years spent discovering the country solo, to find an occupation, I worked as a guide for about fifteen years to accompany travelers to meet indigenous communities and/or animals of Panama. Once or twice a year I also organized and accompanied self-drive safaris in Africa.
Now retired, I do amateur wildlife photography, out of passion.
