Birding in Panama with Canopy Family w/ Carlos Bethancourt - Toledo Naturalists Association

Panama is blessed with incredible natural beauty and biodiversity. Over 1,000 bird species, hundreds of mammals, reptiles & amphibians, and a staggering number of butterflies, dragonflies, beetles and plant species have been recorded here. Canopy Family’s knowledgeable and entertaining senior guide took guests of Toledo Naturalists Association on a photographic journey of the tropical birds, bizarre mammals, unusual reptiles & amphibians and spectacular habitats from the Canal Zone, into the foothills of western Panama, and then into the wilds of the Darién in eastern Panama-all the favorite hotspots-from toucans to hummingbirds, mouse opossums to tongue-wielding Orange Nectar Bats, Carlos will keep you spellbound with his stories of discovery and vivid images. Watch this recording and experience why Panama is indeed the country of amazing natural history and a favorite destination for serious birders who want to explore some of Central America’s famous hotspots.
