Bird Sanctuary
Close to 900 species of birds can be found in Costa Rica – an incredible amount for a country of such small size. At Arenal Observatory Lodge and vicinity, we’ve spotted more than 500 kinds of birds in our forest – making our Arenal hotel a renowned destination for bird watching tours in Costa Rica. Well–marked trails through primary and secondary rainforest and open pastureland on our 870-acre property offer plentiful birding opportunities. Some of the more spectacular birds include three-wattled bellbirds, crested guans, orange-bellied trogons, white hawks, laughing falcons, red-lored parrots, green herons, squirrel cuckoos, great potoos, ruby-throated hummingbirds, yellow-throated toucans, and keel-billed toucans. Here is a complete list of birds seen at Arenal Observatory Lodge.
