- Birding in Colombia, the first part of our trip was 4 days around the Bogota area. We explore Chingaza, Chicaque, Laguna de Tabacal and Sumapaz. Also a couple of hummingbird gardens: Observatorio de Colibríes, and Jardín Encantado, and La Florida park in Bogota.
Our guide in the Bogota area was Johan Florez. We saw 168 species in these 4 days, of which 61 were lifers, and some were extremely range-restricted. We were very happy!
We can't always get photos of every species - our style is "birding with a camera" rather than dedicated photography. We try to show our favourite photos - sometimes a good photo of a common bird, sometimes a good bird even if the photo isn't so great.

So many beautiful and interesting species. Enjoyed watching a lot 😊 👍
Warm greetings!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for your kind comment
oh my goodness that crimson mantled woodpecker , hope Columbia was good i would be a bit nervous going there
It was great. It is always better to go with a guide or group but the areas were safe
Amazing, did you self drive to Chingaza? Very impressed with the helmetcrest, what a great trip
No, our guide Johan did all the driving. The roads were pretty decent though, just very busy in Bogata
@@spottybeetles1040 cool thanks very much, but was it possible to enter Chingaza without a ranger / local guide? Was thinking of a self drive but didn’t know if we could go
There were no gates or barriers so self drive should be fine. We entered from the North, down the gravel road starting here: maps.app.goo.gl/7HokRJW48dzhsXDa7
A very good footage of Colombian birds. Only one question, is Johan Florez freelancer?
Thank you for visiting. Yes, Johan is a freelancer
thanks
Amazing video. By the way, I think you put the wrong species name on your Southern Emerald-Toucanet photo.
Thank you! We use IOC names, which splits the Colombian race as White-throated en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White-throated_toucanet 🙂
@@spottybeetles1040 I see. Thank you for the explanation!
