Native to the highlands of Mexico, the Collared Towhee is a distinctive endemic that inhabits pine-oak and montane forests. It spends much of its time foraging on the ground, searching for seeds and insects among fallen leaves. Despite its striking appearance, it often remains hidden.

Endemic of the Week

Blue Mockingbird - Mulato Azul (Melanotis caerulescens).

Brilliant blue plumage, striking red eyes, and a remarkable talent for mimicking other birds make the Blue Mockingbird one of Mexico's most fascinating songbirds. Although often heard before it is seen, this shy species usually remains hidden in dense vegetation, rewarding only the most patient birders when it finally steps into view.

What's your favorite Mexican bird?

The Yellow-breasted Crake.

Polluela Pecho Amarillo (Hapalocrex flaviventer).

Algunas aves no te la ponen fácil y los rálidos son especialistas en esconderse, su destreza esta llega de sigilo.

La encontraron en el 2022 mi pueblo San Blas, pero hasta este año 2024 fue el adecuado para ir a buscarla.

Gracias a Kevin, Octavius, Mark, y a Don chencho por haberlo hecho posible.
