Probably the most relaxing of all our departures with a real Caribbean “feeling” to the tour but we’ll make sure you get those important birds like Cuban Tody, Bee Hummingbird, Cuban Trogon, Bare-legged Owl, Zapata Sparrow, Cuban Solitaire, Fernandina’s Flicker and Cuban Parrot. Our Next Tour: Some of Cuba’s endemic birds are quite widespread such as Cuban Trogon (the national bird), the delightful Cuban Tody and Cuban Green Woodpecker. Others, like the tiny Bee Hummingbird, the rare Gundlach’s Hawk and the quail-doves are more difficult and during this tour we’ll focus on these and some of the other regional specialities. The timing of our trip means that there’ll be plenty of migrants around as well as the remaining winter visitors from the north such as the colourful wood warblers and shorebirds to search for too. We’ll be assisted throughout the tour by local experts with the up-to-date bird information.
