There are at least 566 bird species that have been reliably recorded in Belize. Birds thrive in all of Belize's habitats. Wading birds congregate along the coastline and inner lagoons. The grasslands and savannas provide seeds for the many finches, and nesting trees for the giant Jabiru Stork. And in the tropical forests there is an astonishing diversity of bird species.

With its unusually diverse habitats, the famous Maya Ruin area of Lamanai is a must for bird watchers. The New River  boat tours to the Lamanai ruins are a must for any bird lover. The waterway simply teems with bird life. Rare birds abound, like the roseate spoonbills, sun grebes and long-necked anhinga. Near the mouth of the lagoon is a large ceiba tree with a huge nest, home to a five-foot Jabiru stork, the largest bird in the country which has a wingspan of approximately eight feet.

There are over 320 bird species that live or pass through Consejo, Belize. The pictures on this page are of birds that we have actually observed in the Consejo area.
