After my birding trip to Costa Rica, we again visited Cayo Coco Cuba in April for 10 days. This was our 5th year staying out on the cay, our 7th overall trip to Cuba. Previously we had also stayed in Varadero and birded Zapata Swamp and Holguin. We find the people, culture, and its people to be just spectacular and love vacationing in Cuba.
I regularly am able to observe around a hundred species every year, some migrants, some endemics, and an assortment of local birds. And since I’ve already done blogs for all these birds on past trips, I have condensed the birds we observed into a few short blogs.
Always a favourite to observe and photograph the beautiful Cuban Tody.
The Cuban Oriole on the Yellow Agave Flower. Hanging around these flowering trees always produces a multitude of bird observations.
Although I've been fortunate to get many images of the Great Lizard-Cuckoo, I was very happy to finally capture an inflight shot.
The ever gorgeous Western Spindalis.
And I never get tired of photographing the Red-legged Thrush, a very common bird in Cuba.
