Guatemala is a bird lover’s paradise with seven distinct biomes and over 720 bird species, of which approximately 10% are endemic. Birding in Guatemala is made easy thanks to six biosphere reserves and 21 national parks. Track down the Resplendent Quetzal, White Hawk, Pale Billed Woodpecker, Rufous Sabrewing, and as many more as you can find. Birdwatching tours are available for casual travelers as well as cruise ship passengers from birdinguatemala through the link above.
