Is El Salvador a birding destination? Well...

It´s International Coffee Day! El Salvador´s coffee is one of the best of the world! Let's celebrate it! The secondary forests that provide shade to the coffee plantation are key for the conservation of multiple species. Not only birds but amphibians, reptiles, insects and mammals do get the benefits of this important agricultural product in our country. One of the most remarkable residents of this forests is the close to endemic Blue and White Mockingbird that inhabits coffee plantations and cloud forests above 1500 above sea level in Chiapas (México), Guatemala, El Salvador as well as Honduras, and british TV presenter Nigel Marven and I had the chance to spot one while visiting a coffee plantation in Apaneca in Western El Salvador. Thanks to our friends of @bourboncoffeeroasters Eduardo & master barista Jonathan (El Salvador´s barista champion 2018 & 2019) for receiving us in their amazing cafe. .
