Please help the birds during their incredible journey!

!MIGRATION ALERT! Tonight, BirdCast predicts that more than 500 MILLION birds will be migrating under the cover of darkness. Sadly, birds can be disoriented by light pollution, contributing to the hundreds of millions of birds estimated to die in building collisions in the U.S. every year. To help migrating birds, be sure to turn off nonessential lights from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. nightly, and make glass safer. Just remember: Dim lights at night. Treat glass by day.

North America about 75.000.000 years ago…very impressive!

🦖 América del Norte hace unos 75 Millones de Años 🦕🌎😱

Hace unos 75 millones de años, América del Norte era muy diferente de lo que conocemos hoy. Grandes partes del continente estaban cubiertas por un mar interior conocido como el Mar Interior Occidental 🌊, dividiendo el territorio en dos masas de tierra: Laramidia al oeste y Appalachia al este. Estas áreas eran hogar de una increíble variedad de dinosaurios y otras criaturas prehistóricas 🐊.

Uno de los sitios fósiles más famosos de este período es el Parque Provincial Dinosaurio en Canadá 🇨🇦, donde se han encontrado restos de grandes dinosaurios como Tyrannosaurus, Centrosaurus y Hadrosaurus 🦕. Otro sitio clave es el Cañón Kaiparowits en Utah , lleno de fósiles que nos muestran la biodiversidad en aquellos tiempos. Estas áreas son vitales para entender cómo era la vida en la prehistoria y qué criaturas poblaban esos ecosistemas. 🏞️

Bobolink…

Bobolink might not seem like a superhero, but these little grassland birds have superpowers! Each year, they fly 12k miles roundtrip from South America to North America. In their lifetime, that's a distance equal to several laps around the Earth! 🌎

I have the best job in the world!

A couple of days ago we changed the day of the tour due to the arrival of hurricane Beryl....and....with lots of success!!!

Victor and Laishan decided to come back to this beautiful place and wanted to do another tour. In 2022 they already joined me on the "Rio Lagartos" tour and "Mayan Sites" tour....

This time we did the "History of the Jungle"...

Last week we had another wonderful day in Rio Lagartos with Allan Roffey and David Smith. David took these beautiful photographs of these wonderful bird-species.

Special thanks to Guia Naturalista William Canto

Today 3 weeks ago…it was the last day of a long drought…
We saw lots of beautiful birds and….towards the end of the tour we saw this gorgeous Agami Heron….
It was well out of its range…but nature never stops surprising!

On our way back we finally had our first rain….followed by a lot more rain….
Nature looks happy!
Hopefully Beryl will have mercy…
