37 new species of birds

by Alejandro Sáenz

This new information was revealed thanks to the Bird Count that took place in December 2008. Additionally, 7 new species of birds were discovered on the Atlantic side, a sector which hasn’t been studied for years.
This study, which took place in the Atlantic and Pacific Rainforest Sky Trams, brought together more than 100 individuals comprising ornithologists, tour guides, and bird watchers in general, to monitor the status and distribution of the populations and to learn more about the behavior of migrating species.
