This document compiles the main routes, seasons, and areas of interest for those who conduct counting and specialized documentation.

Winged Species Count in Boquete

Boquete, located in the mountainous region of western Panama, offers exceptional conditions for the study and recording of birdlife. Its diverse microclimates, including valleys, mountains, cloud forests, and tropical rainforests, allow for the presence of more than 400 winged species, including the collared whitethroat, the yellow-winged parakeet, and the resplendent quetzal.

The slopes of Barú Volcano are an ideal setting for observing rare species such as the common rush and the volcano star. Migratory birds such as the peregrine warbler and the Baltimore oriole can even be spotted from urban areas or lodge gardens.

Seasons of Peak Activity

The period between late February and April coincides with the breeding season for several species, which increases the chances of recording behaviors such as courtship, nest building, and feeding young. This is also a good time to observe the quetzal in its natural habitat.

Between September and November, numerous species migrate from the north of the continent, following traditional routes south. During these months, hikes along Boquete's trails allow for a large number of records to be added to individual and group counts.

However, Boquete maintains remarkable diversity year-round, making it an ideal destination for bird monitoring and documentation activities in any season.

High Mountain Routes

The district's high altitudes, up to 2,000 m above sea level, offer unique opportunities for spotting specialized species. Along the Los Quetzales Trail, which crosses Volcán Barú National Park, species such as the three-headed bellbird, the zeledonia, the fiery-throated hummingbird, and the quetzal have all been documented.

Along the Pipeline Trail in the Los Naranjos community, the green hermit, the red-faced spinetail, the yellow-winged vireo, and the elegant euphonia stand out.

Other recommended routes include the nature reserves of La Fortuna and Palo Seco, where species of great interest live, such as the Bar-necked Umbrellabird, the Blue-capped Magpie, the Barred Sparrowhawk and the Scale-crested Dwarf-tyrant.

Low Altitude Ecosystems

In areas such as Caldera, at 300 m above sea level, it is possible to identify species typical of lowlands, such as the orange-necked manakin, the plumbeous-headed manakin, the savannah swallowtail and the red-fronted parakeet.

Some coffee farms in the region also offer guided tours focused on observing species such as the long-tailed bowerbird, the red-headed barbet, the dusky peewit and various hummingbirds, including the small twinkling star.

Near the town center, the Bajo Mono trail provides access to wooded areas where species such as the yellow-billed cacique, the grey-headed flycatcher and the rose-breasted tanager have been recorded.
