Looks like a cool adventure! Sorry you got sick, that’s always a concern in Mexico.

[@TheBirdingVoyage]

Thanks for watching! That's true about the food!

What a great initiative! Very unique and useful for birders! I wish you success!

[@TheBirdingVoyage]

Thank you and thanks for watching.

My wife and I vacationed in the Puerto Vallarta area around Christmas time in 2003 and in Cabo San Lucas in 2005. Unfortunately at the time we weren't birders yet. We birded in Ecuador in 2016, 2018 and 2023; Honduras in 2018; Dominican Republic in 2019 and Colombia in 2020. I wish I felt safe birding in Mexico but I don't at the moment. What are your thoughts about safety? You obviously go so you must feel adequately safe.

[@TheBirdingVoyage]

There are probably certain parts of Mexico to avoid, but most of the places I've been have been safe. It sounds like you've been to some amazing birding locations!

Thanks. I have had the good fortune to do some birding in some special areas. We will likely move to Ecuador eventually. My parents moved their from Washington State when they retired. My videos aren't the greatest but here is a link to the video I made from my trip there last Christmas.
