Birding from the forest floor only gets you a small view of what's going on in the canopy. Forest towers are a great way to see more of the birdlife up and down the trees with hawks and swifts up in the sky, foraging flocks mid-canopy, and woodcreepers below the crown.
Maira, Alen, and Hannah also chat about their experience on an all-women birding trip.Main Story Begins at: 9:07

Birding in Brazil has been on our schedule for more than a year... and it's finally here! Our first stop: Presidente Figueiredo. Located in the state of Amazonas, Presidente Figueiredo is known as the Land of Waterfalls due to its abundance of water, jungle, caves, waterfalls (over 100!), and geological sites. Ecotourism is growing in this area for it's stunning natural sites and incredible birding.

Finishing up our last few days in Costa Rica, we spent a day at the beautiful Hotel Quelitales (including an incredible lunch) and then headed west for some backcountry road birding. Relying on eBird hotspots, we found a few interesting spots, including an overgrown adventure park.

We had a free day when we first arrived to Costa Rica. So we scoped out a cool botanical garden, a coffee farm that works towards being bird-friendly, and an amazing hotel with birding gardens!
FYI we talk a lot about the logistics of our first-time in Costa Rica on our own with cars and driving.

Central Oregon has so much to offer! Woodpeckers, empids, and owls - galore!
The Dean Hale Woodpecker Festival takes place at the end of May and highlights some of the great birding spots in the area. We lead a few trips as part of the festival, drank good beers, and did a bit of birding on our own.

In advance of our repositioning cruise, we had a few days to bird around LA. We've been there a few times before to bird, so we were searching for new spots and new birds. That drew us to Chino Hills State Park which is a great place for wildflowers, hiking, and Black-chinned Sparrows. Before jumping on the cruise, we had some time to spend at El Dorado Regional Park.
*the name of the museum we were trying to recall is Arizona Sonora Desert Museum - thanks Taylor! Additionally, we mentioned multiple times an incorrect name for the trail we hiked at Chino Hills State Park. It is properly named the Coal Canyon Trail, not the Coal Creek Trail. We apologize for any confusion due to the mistake we did not catch before publishing the episode.

I know what you are thinking: "another cruise, really?!?" Hear us out - this one is birdy. Spring repositioning cruises along the west coast of the US offer a good chance at seeing some of the pelagic species that are tough otherwise. Listen in for our trip on the Sapphire Princess in search of petrels.

There are many ways to enjoy birding and sometimes it's fun to be a little bit competitive, especially when it helps with conservation. We were excited to return to the Great Texas Birding Classic after skipping out in the last few years. This time we gave a Sunrise to Noon in South Texas a try.

Going on a cruise? It can be hard to get some birding in! But we believe in trying to bird wherever you can - so we did! Our cruise took us to Princess Cay, Puerto Rico, and Grand Turk and we were able to see some great birds while checking out the other sites.

Back in Florida - at least for a day! Before going on a "company retreat/family wedding" cruise, we had a day to bird the Fort Lauderdale/Miami area. Good food, sunny skies, and cherished birds! Luckily for us, there was a free walk with Tropical Audubon Society at Frog Pond WMA/Lucky Hammock, a great hotspot just outside of the Everglades National Park entrance.
