Ecuador concentrates exceptional geographic diversity within a small area. The Andes divide the country into distinct west- and east-slope systems, linking the Chocó lowlands, inter-Andean valleys, high-elevation páramo, and the upper Amazon Basin. Steep elevation gradients, active volcanism, and equatorial climate patterns create rapid habitat transitions that have driven high levels of speciation and habitat specialization, resulting in close to 1700 recorded bird species. This presentation connects those physical and ecological processes to the bird diversity we encounter in the field and explains why Ecuador consistently ranks among the top countries globally for birders.

Some days in the field remind you why you do this.

While scouting in Sierra de la Macarena National Park, Colombia, we set out in search of the recently reported Harpy Eagle nest. The morning began with steady rain, followed by a rough 4x4 ride on muddy roads and a demanding hike through humid forest. Not exactly a casual walk.

But persistence paid off.

At the nest site we were treated to a remarkable show—both adult eagles tending their young fledgling, and at one point the male arrived carrying what appeared to be a spider monkey to feed the youngster. A raw, unforgettable glimpse into the life of one of the most powerful raptors in the Neotropics.

Experiences like this remind you how important it is that the forests of La Macarena remain protected. With continued local conservation efforts and responsible ecotourism, hopefully landscapes like this will keep providing the conditions these extraordinary birds need to thrive.

Some muddy boots were definitely worth it.

We’re launching a new open-enrollment birding tour across the Cauca Valley and the Central Andes / Western Andes—one of the most productive birding circuits in the Neotropics.

This is a solid, proven program—no filler days, no rushed transfers—just focused birding in prime locations with experienced leadership.

What’s included:
• All lodging
• All meals
• Ground transportation
• Professional guides
• Entrance fees
• And more

We’re partnering with our friends at Adeventures Colombia to ensure seamless logistics and top-tier local expertise.

Colombia wrap-up 🇨🇴

We’ve now completed the Central Andes leg of the journey, exploring outstanding high-elevation habitats and some of the region’s most respected birding sites.

Our days included time at Reserva La Esmeralda, a locally run conservation initiative, the classic cloud forests of Río Blanco Reserve, the hummingbird-rich grounds of Hacienda El Bosque, and the dramatic high-Andean landscapes of Los Nevados National Natural Park.

It’s been a strong week of birding, plenty of laughs in the field, and the kind of shared moments that turn a good group into new friends.

A sincere thank you to the Northwest Nevada Bird Alliance for trusting us once again to design and lead this program.

Many thanks to our fantastic team Oswaldo and Mateo for keeping us informed and on track to enjoy beautiful Colombia!

On to the next one.

Colombia update from the field 🇨🇴

We’ve just completed the first leg of our Colombia birding tour, exploring the Western Andes and the Cauca Valley—a productive mix of foothill forest, dry habitats, and wetlands.

So far we’ve visited some of the region’s most iconic birding sites, including La Florida (Bosque de las Aves), Doña Dora, and the Sonso wetlands, with strong birding throughout.

The tour is running smoothly, and it’s been a pleasure traveling with such an enthusiastic group from the Northwest Nevada Bird Alliance.

Onward to the Central Andes and higher elevations—plenty more ahead.

Special thanks to our wonderful friends and partners for all their unconditional support! 🦜🌺🦉

We’re pleased to announce our Southern Costa Rica birding tour this March 22 to April 1.

This special tours is sponsored by the Los Angeles Birders, with a focused look at the regional endemics of the Talamanca Mountains and the Osa Peninsula.

This small-group program moves from high-elevation cloud forest to lowland rainforest, following a clean elevation gradient and a tight selection of sites chosen for time in the field, not box-ticking. March offers reliable conditions and strong bird activity across elevations.

Beyond solid birding, this tour helps support local conservation efforts through our work with regional partners and community-based reserves.

Limited spaces available.
If Southern Costa Rica has been on your radar and the Talamanca and Osa endemics are still on your list, this is a good moment to act.

We’re thrilled to announce our first birding tour in Colombia, a new collaboration between Flyway Birding Tours and Northwest Nevada Bird Alliance.

The route takes us straight into the heart of the Central Andes, Western Andes, and the Cauca Valley—one of the most productive birding landscapes in the Neotropics, packed with endemics, elevational variety, and consistently outstanding field conditions.

Well-designed days, small groups, excellent local knowledge, and a clear focus on quality birding from start to finish.

We'll be back soon with more details!
