PUERTO RICAN ENDEMIC AVIFAUNA

Pictures and videos of our avifauna.

Many people ask if we look for the Puerto Rican
Parrot during our birding programs. Since we
follow best practices guidelines, we firmly believe
that we should not interfere with the natural habitat
of an endangered species, specially during its
breeding season.

We strongly encourage all serious birders to follow
these guidelines.

PUERTO RICAN PARROT

This private birding program is
offered for a maximum of 4 people.

Since we live in Puerto Rico, we
stop for birds in areas less visited by
touristic birding groups, where we
know we will find our endemics.
Our Guides know the sites, and how
to identify the birds by hearing them.

For our Endemic Bird Trail we use a
2008 4x4 Honda Pilot. This birding
program will be lead by AdveTours´
owner, Hilda Morales, who is a
Certified Interpretive Guide and
Certified Driver Guide. Larger
groups are welcome.

We invite you to learn more about our endemic
avifauna. Please use the links provided on the
left column. If you have a special birding request,
drop us an email at your convenience.
