*******************************
About the Site
The Panama Fruit Feeder Cam is located on the grounds of the Canopy Lodge in El Valle de Antón, Panama. This site is just over 2,000 ft above sea level in the low mountains of Cerro Gaital, with a mild springtime climate year-round. A small stream called Rio Guayabo runs past the feeders in the background, and the lush landscaping of the Canopy Lodge grounds grade into the forested slopes around them. The feeding table is around 40 feet from the main lodge, and is one of several feeders provisioned throughout the day so that guests to the lodge are greeted to spectacular views of many of the common birds found in this ecosystem.
About the Canopy Lodge
The Canopy Lodge is a full service lodge specializing in nature tourism with a focus on birds. It is about 60 miles west of Panama City in the picturesque village of El Valle de Antón, right in the center of the gigantic crater of an extinct volcano. This is the largest inhabited crater in the Western Hemisphere and second only to the Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania. It is surrounded by the Cerro Gaital Natural Monument.
Canopy Lodge is one of a series of three ecotourism ventures developed by the Canopy Family. The first, Canopy Tower, involved transforming a former U.S. radar station overlooking the Panama Canal in Soberanía National Park into a unique birding lodge embedded in the canopy of the surrounding forest. Their newest property, Canopy Camp, offers a taste of some of the wildest lowland rainforest in Panama in the Darién region.

Birds Feeders
So beautiful my favorite animal are birds!!!!! 🐦♥️
Here's an idea - maybe you've thought of it already. Turn some Cornell Lab Live bird cams (where there are lots of variety of birds) into an eBird hotspot. The Panama feeder would be perfect! Then have the live viewers create eBird lists for what they see. During this time when many people are staying home it would be a great way for people to actively participate in birding outside of their neighborhood. And for disabled people who are normally not able to get out it would give them a great way to participate. We could all learn about a new part of the world and the birds that are there as well as collect the data for scientists. The time and date are listed right on the video so people could use that to accurately timestamp their entries. Most hotspots in eBird have illustrated or printable checklists so that would help everyone get familiar with the birds. Or if you don't want to mess with existing bird cams like Canopy Lodge do an experiment and create a new cam specifically for testing out the virtual eBird checklist concept.
Very cute! Love the way the youngsters can feed themselves but still want to be fed as well. That's the life!

What is wrong with the left foot of the adult Chachalaca on the left? At about the 3:16 mark you can see it very clearly when it's held up.
So cute! I noticed that the adult bird on the left has an injured foot 3:16.
