Our most popular tour picks up in your hotel around 5:15
am to arrive at the Park By 5:30 am, and ends around 9:30 am, after a
delicious light breakfast of fresh fruit, juice, and coffee.The circuit trail
combines tree plantations, a gallery forest alongside on of the important
rivers of the area, a regenerating forest with open grasslands and
pastures, and small brooks which permit the observation of typical open
area birds, in addition to aquatic and wooded area birds.Among the most
common birds found here, we have: Great Kiskadees (Pitangus
Sulphuratus), Tropical Kingbird Flycatchers (Capsiempis Flaveola),
Montezuma Orioles (Psarocolius Montezuma), Variable Seedeater
(Sporophila Americana), Tropical Tyrants (Tyrannus Melancholicus), Red
billed Pigeons(Patagioenas Flavirostris), and Groove-billed Anis. In
addition, you can observe less common resident species like the Iron
Architect which gets its name from the impressive twig platform it creates
for a nest.The Laughing Falcon (Herpetotheres Cachinnans) is a good
sized hawk whose presence is an indicator of a healthy environment, this
because their diet depends on snakes, which in turn feed on frogs,
rodents,lizards, birds and other snakes. In the park it is also possible to
see Black-Cheeked Woodpecker(Melanerpes Pucherani) and Purple
Trogons (Trogon Violaceus).Among the aquatic habit birds which are the
most difficult to observe, we may be graced with the presence of Uniform
Crakes (Amaurolimnas Concolor) and White-throated Fledgling. (Laterallus
Albigularis).If you prefer a more technical tour with different types of
birds, choose between any of our other options of semi-private tours, with
a specialized guide for each area. Among these alternatives, you can
choose between bird watching at Lake Arenal, the Arenal Hanging Bridges,
Caño Negro Wildlife Refuge,Ecocentro Danaus, El Silencio Reserve, Juan
