Birding

Santuario Santa Fe is home to at least 189 species of birds including parrots, tanagers, hummingbirds, woodpeckers, raptors, and many more. Scroll to the bottom for a complete list of species identified so far at SSF. The effort to identify and photograph the birds of SSF has been led by our son Alejo. Some highlights of his work are shown below, and many more of his photos and checklists can be found at the eBird Hotspot for SSF:
