- Birding highlights from a 6 night stay in February 2016 at the superb Chan Chich Lodge on the Gallun Jug Estate in western Belize. Some of the star birds included are Ocellated Turkeys, Lovely Cotinga, Guatemalan Screech-owl, Black-throated Shrike-tanager, Northern Royal Flycatcher, Slaty-trailed Trogon, Northern Schiffornis, Long-billed Hermit, Pale-billed Woodpeckers, Crested Guan, Aztec Parakeet, White-whiskered Puffbirds, Band-backed Wren and White Hawk. The trip was a mixture of self-guided walks around the lodge and excursions with the lodge's excellent guides.

@Keegan Garrett instablaster :)
@Joe Valentin I really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and I'm trying it out now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Joe Valentin It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my ass !
@Keegan Garrett happy to help :D
Brazil take note patch up the amazon bring nature back , great vid greg
We can help that by going vegan. over 90% of Amazonian destruction to date has resulted from animal agriculture. Large part of that is soya, 80% of which is headed for animal feed - 30% of that lands in Europe. Asides from that it is a horrific industry across the board and is contributing to pandemics and massive health costs, too. 30% of methane comes from animal agriculture. We need to get land back to re-wild as carbon sinks desperately.
Amazing!!! Thanks for sharing!
Fantastic video Greg! 🎥👏👍
The bird the Bat Falcon is feeding on at 23:21 is a Gray Catbird. Note the uniform gray plumage and rufous on the vent region.
That White Hawk is amazing!
Very nice !! Lots of greets
Just a question, Is their a bus coming from Belize city to Chan chic lodge? Ty
I’m not sure. Best to check Chan Chich Lodge website for travel options.
@@GregBaker57 ty Greg for replying.. I've seen mostly all your birding adve and I love it
How do you spell the name of that bird resting on the ground? Parakee, poraki... Is it a parakeet? Odd as its not a bright color.
Hi William. You’re probably referring to the Common Pauraque, which is a type of Nightjar and can often be found along paths at night at places such as Chan Chich.
@@GregBaker57 Thanks for replying. Why on the path I might ask? Is not treetops better to avoid predators?
They feed at night and just use the paths as a resting place. They roost during the day away from predators.
I'm from Belize and almost everyone has a bird in their house.
Hi Greg,
I am a reporter with a news station in Belize ( Channel 5 - www.channel5belize.com). I am working on a news story about birds/birding in Belize and wanted to know if I can get your permission to use a few shots from this great birding video you have. I will be sure to credit the footage to you and send you a link to the video after it is published. Kindly let me know as soon as you can. Thank you - APolanco
My apologies for not seeing this sooner - it didn't come up on my page! I'm not sure if it's now too late, but yes you have my permission to use footage as long as it's credited.
looks like the bat falcon at 23:28 is eating a gray catbird
Alexis Bukowski Could be, there were a few around the local area but virtually impossible to tell from views I had.

clean your hummingbird feeders please
superb footage. The narrated comments provide ornithological references plus your arbitrary perception of the bird context rendered in your rather personal intonation. But It's completely different from what goes on in my mind when i watch birds. i don't like your interpretations much. i'd prefer you leave it at ID and let the viewer connect in its own way with the bird with the natural sounds.
goognam goognws It’s always difficult to know where to draw the line on commentaries but most people seem to prefer some context rather than just a list of the species seen. Thanks for you comments though.
