This quick trip focuses on capturing the beauty of the American Flamingo in its native habitat on the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico.  We will make two boat trips into the Ria Lagartos Preserve where we expect to photograph these iconic birds in all their glory.  We will also have opportunities to photograph a variety of land birds in the area including the Mexican Sheartail, Yucatan Vireo, Lesser Yellow-headed Vireo, Yucatan Jay, Yucatan Woodpecker, “Mangrove” Yellow Warbler, Common Black Hawk and a variety of others.  

This trip is limited to three participants and starts and ends at the Cancun International Airport CUN.  The priority is on obtaining beautiful photos of the birds of the area, especially the American Flamingo.
