Birding
Pipeline Road
information@senderopanama.com
Pipeline
Road located in Soberania National Park, with access to both forest and wetland
birds, is considered by many to be one of the best birding locations in all of
the tropics. In a single day it is possible to see up to 300 species. Due to
the nature of the inhabitants of the forest it is not uncommon to encounter
army ant swarms attended by antbirds.
Mixed flocks are frequent flyers.
The many
birds found within the park on Pipeline road include: trogons, wrens, puffbirds,
hummingbirds, hermits, and motmots. Forest-falcons are commonly heard and often
seen. Exploring the nearby wetlands one can often find Rufescent Tiger-herons,
White-throated Crakes, Wattled Jacanas, Purple Gallinules, and many other
aquatic species. But birds are not the only animals one encounters when
exploring this area of Panama. Many other abound, including the monkeys,
sloths, iguanas, frogs, toads, and rodents such as the agouti, paca, and
capybara.
Accompanied
by one of our certified interpretive guides, a day of birding on the Pipeline
Road is so much more than just looking for and identifying birds.
