Panama is a paradise for the bird enthusiast. Bird watching in Panama is a truly rewarding experience, with over 960 species of birds found in an area of less than 50,000 square miles that are easily reached, avid and the beginner birders alike will enjoy a unique avian adventure

Many migrating birds spend their winters in Panama and you may see, for example, Rose-breasted Grosbeaks in the same tree with Keel-billed Toucans.  In this small, easily accessible country you will find a wide range of habitats from highland cloud forest to lowland rainforest and coastal estuaries. There are actually seven life zones to be discovered in Panama.

Most extended stay lodging for bird watching in Panama is in association with eco-lodges or eco-travel companies.  Here are a few of the best, although there will be a few unguided lodging alternatives, in bird rich locations, offered in upcoming extended stay lodging editions.
