One of the best places to go for endemic birds and migratory species in the eastern region is
El Yunque National Forest. While many people believe that you have to be very early in the
Forest looking for the birds, the truth is that unless you want to listen to the PR Screech Owl
must of the time what you see is the silhouette of the birds in the dark.
On a normal full day birding program, we can find twelve species:
Adelaide´s warbler, lizard cuckoo, tody, flycatcher, emerald, woodpecker,
oriole, green mango, tanager, screech owl, bullfinch, and spindalis.
For the elfin woods, yellow-shouldered blackbird, and nightjar, we suggest
a trip to the west region. Since our parrot is an endangered species, we
do not look for it during their breeding season.

This picture of the Yellow-bellied
Sapsucker was taken at El Yunque
National Forest and it could be
probably the only picture of this
bird taken in Puerto Rico.
