Introduction

In February 2016 we made a two-week trip to the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico. This trip report presents the itinerary, the bird

sightings, and some practical issues. The Yucatan Peninsula is an ideal birding destination. It offers a rich and diverse set of birds,

fascinating Mayan Ruins, lots of other wildlife, beautiful beaches, and nice snorkeling opportunities. Travelling around is easy with a

rental car. Roads are in good conditions, distances are small, and plenty of (affordable) accommodation and restaurants can be

found in almost all places.

14 species are (near) endemic to the Yucatan Peninsula, including 3 of which can only be found on Cozumel Island. Some of these

can be found throughout the peninsula, while others are more local. The Cozumel Thrasher is thought to be extinct.

1. Ocellated Turkey - Meleagris ocellata

2. Yellow-lored or Yucatan Parrot - Amazona xantholora

3. Yucatan Poorwill - Nyctiphrynus yucatanicus

4. Yucatan Nightjar - Caprimulgus badius

5. Red-vented or Yucatan Woodpecker - Melanerpes pygmaeus

6. Yucatan Flycatcher - Myiarchus yucatanensis

7. Yucatan Jay - Cyanocorax yucatanicus ...photo

8. Yucatan Wren - Campylorhynchus yucatanicus

9. Black Catbird - Melanoptila glabrirostris

10. Rose-throated Tanager - Piranga roseogularis

11. Orange Oriole - Icterus auratus

12. Cozumel Emerald - Chlorostilbon forficatus

13. Cozumel Thrasher - Toxostoma guttatum

14. Cozumel Vireo - Vireo baird

A number of endemic taxa might entail future splits. These include Rufous-browed Peppershrike, (Cyclarhis gujanensis insularis)

House Wren (Troglodytes aedon beani), Blue-gray Gnatcatcher (Polioptila caerulea cozumelae), Western Spindalis (Spindalis zena

benedicti), and Bananaquit (Coereba flaveola caboti).

During our trip we saw 252 different species, including most endemics. Furthermore, we saw 10 different mammal species,

including a very unexpected and wonderful sighting of a Jaguar, and lots of butterflies and dragonflies. Pictures can be found on

observado: Birds, Mammals, Butterflies, and Dragonflies. A lot of information about where-to-watch birds can be found on internet

and in various trip reports. We used Observado.org and Ebird.org to get a better picture of where certain species are regularly

encountered.

We hired a car from the airport in Cancun and stayed in different hotels and guesthouses, which we booked online prior to our

departure. On Cozumel we hired another car for one day as this is much easier and cheaper than bringing a car from the mainland.

In total the trip did cost 1320 euro per person, including 565 for flight tickets.

Sites visited

Rio Lagartos

This town on the north coast of the Yucatán Peninsula offers a variety of habitats and the opportunity to see a number of birds that

are not easily encountered elsewhere such as White-lored Gnatcatcher, Yucatán Wren, and Mexican Sheartail. The latter species is

easily found around the town and in the scrub near restaurant Chiquila, just east of town. American Flamingo’s can be seen from

the boulevard and it is possible to take a boat tour as well. Birding is mainly done on a small road that leads to Granaderia San

Salvador. The turn-off to this road lies a bit southeast of Rio Lagartos, a 7,7 km drive along Carr. a San Felipe, and just before the

northern turn-off to Iglesia Católica De Las Coloradas. We found Yucatan Wren, Mangrove Cuckoo, Ferruginous Pygmy-owl, King

Vulture, Painted Bunting and Lesser Roadrunner during a morning walk. Early morning, just before we arrived to the place, we saw

a Tayra crossing the road.

Mangrove Cuckoo Grey Fox

Around Mérida

We found Mérida to be a convenient place from where the surrounding places could be visited. The first morning we went straight

to Dzibilchaltún. This is a beautiful Mayan complex in a nice setting where many species can be found. There were only a few

visitors early morning (they are not open before 8 o’ clock). Later during the day more tourists came in. The rest of the day we

5

drove along the coast, from Progresa to the east. Several waders can be found in the shallow lakes just south of the road, but

nothing special. We searched in vain for Piping plover, a species that sometimes can be found in the salt pans here. The following

day we visited the Mayapan Ruins, a nice complex which attracts very few visitors. We mainly had the place to ourselves the whole

morning. We drove around on the secondary roads on the way back to Mérida and found a Lesser Roadrunner.

Uxmal

This is a large and beautifully sited Mayan Complex that offers plenty of opportunities for bird watching, especially early morning.

We made an early start from Mérida, but opposite the entrance is also a hotel where you can stay. It lies outside the main tourist

routes and hence is much quieter than other places like Chichén Itzá and Cobá. Cave Swallow breeds in large numbers in the

complex. We spend the night in Campeche, a nice colonial town along the north coast, to break the journey to Calakmul.

Calakmul

On our way to Rio Bec Dreams, we visited the Maya Ruins of Balamku just before the turnoff to the entrance road to Calakmul. We

had this place to ourselves and found many birds in the afternoon. Our visit the next day to Calakmul was definitely the highlight of

our trip to Yucatan. The ruin complex is very impressive, completely surrounded by forest and only visited by a handful of people. It

is also a place where one can find many species that are not present on the Yucatan Peninsula. Rio Bec Dreams offers nice

accommodation, close to the turn-off to Calakmul. They serve great food and we had a delicious Valentines Diner here. From Rio

Bec Dreams it is about a 100 km drive to the ruins. The road is surfaced all the way and leads through pristine forests. Numerous

birds can be found along this road and one should definitely make several stops on the way when bird activity is still high. Most

birds around the ruins can also be found later on the day. We saw several Ocellated Turkeys, Great Curassows and Singing Quail

6

along the way. Highlight of our drive was a Jaguar that crossed the road right in front of our car. We had splendid views of this rare

and elusive mammal that is seldom encountered in this area.

Yucatán Spider Monkey

Felipe Carrillo Puerte, Sian Ka'an

The road that leads from Felipe Carrillo Puerto to Sian Ka’an is a

popular place among birders as it offer easy access to good

habitat and a number of specialties can be found along the

road. The road into the area starts from Calle 63 (see map 2).

The road itself is narrow and unsurfaced, but it can easily be

driven with a normal car. Birding is done along the road. We

found Yucatan Poorwill along this road at the town fringe.

Yucatan Nightjar and Northern Potoo should also be possible

here.

Cobá

Coba is another wonderful Mayan complex. As it is close to Tulum and all the beach resorts there, it attracts a lot of visitors, but

early morning and the more remote tracks gave us plentiful opportunities to enjoy the area without the crowds. Species seen here

include Crested Guan, Rose-throated Tanager, and Ruddy Crake. A very obliging Mayan Antthrush gave great views and picture

opportunities. Tulum is an easy place from which to explore the surroundings. We also visited the Maya Ruins of Tulum, but these

were extremely crowded. Access to the beach can be difficult as the whole beach is built up with, most luxury, hotels.

Cozumel

A visit to Cozumel is necessary for a number of endemic species and subspecies. A one day visit, including an afternoon and

morning should be sufficient to find these birds. We chose to stay overnight, which gave us the opportunity to drive around and

explore the island a bit more. A number of species, such as Yucatan Woodpecker and Black Catbird are more easily found on

Cozumel than on the Peninsula. We spent the afternoon in the San Gervasio Ruins. The entrance fee to the ruins is very high

compared to the fees one pays for visiting the ruins on the main land. The ruins are not really impressive and the place is mainly

visited by large groups of tourist from the cruise ships that harbor in Cozumel. Yet it is worth a visit because a number of Cozumel

8

specialties are easy to find here. We found Western Spindalis, Cozumel Emerald, and the Cozumel races of Rufous-browed

Peppershrike, House Wren, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, and Bananaquit. We also saw a Cozumel Island Coati (Nasua nelson), a rare

endemic taxa. We then drove along the southern part of the island, mainly for the scenery. We had diner at a nice beach restaurant

and in the evening we found Northern Potoo and Yucatan Nigthjar at a site just south of town. In the morning we visited the

scrubby area just north of Town. Cozumel Vireo was quickly found, as were Cozumel Emerald, Rose-throated Tanager, and

Carribean Elaenia.
