All set in our Wildside Nature Tours for the The Biggest Week In American Birding.It's that time of the year! Hope to see some of you around!
World's smallest bird: Bee Hummingbird, endemic to Cuba. I'll be couple days with them as backyard birds here while I guide Wildside Nature Tours Cuba Endemic Birds and Cultural trip. Next trip: Nov 2-12, 2023. Join us!
Super excited to have found a Puerto Rican Spindalis nest under construction. I had partially seen couple before, but this one is to my delight
"easy" to see. Found during the Sociedad Ornitológica Puertorriqueña Puerto Rico Breeding Bird Atlas.
Seen many times but finally had time to take couple shots and video to the Antillean Crested Hummingbird during my Wildside Nature Tours Puerto Rico Endemics tour.
One of my favorite doves in the Caribbean is the Caribbean Dove. Again, love to get videos of very relax behavior. This was in Jamaica during my Wildside Nature Tours Jamaica Endemics tour.
This bird is hidden on plain sight from non birders in a hotel garden. People walks by him at least just two feets!! Well, obviously I’m a birder and a guide and finally had time to take a video of a bird many tours already see.
Puerto Rican Spindalis
Reina Mora de Puerto Rico
Just started another of my trips for Wildside Nature Tours with lot of rain but all of a sudden stops, sun cane out and in couple minutes after 6-7 endemics we spot this beauty getting dry giving a show for all of us.

Puerto Rican Nightjar calling.
Waiting for Puerto Rican Nightjars to come closer to the road. Note how many at least are calling. This particular calls not happens all the time. It was a beautiful night, couple nights before the earthquake in January with the same group.
