\n\tVolunteer Counters\n<\/h2>\n

\n\tYou can help monitor at one of the world's most prolific raptor migration sites, where more than two million birds of prey are observed each migration season!\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n\tThe current fall 2022 count is running from August 15th through November. We encourage anyone with birding experience to become a volunteer counter.\n<\/h5><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n\tIf you are interested in participating, explore the rest of this page for more details about our HawkCount. For more information, custom schedules, or to join our team of counters, reach out to us via email at info@adoptabosque.org<\/a> or send us a direct message through social media (@AdoptaBosque).\n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\nWhy is Bocas del Toro great for monitoring raptor migration?\n<\/h3>\n

\n\tBirds of prey generally avoid flying over large bodies of water like the Caribbean Sea. However, the Talamanca mountain range in the west of Panama also creates an obstacle inland, keeping birds from dispersing throughout the country.\n<\/p>\n

\nThese factors combine to create massive concentrations of raptors \u2013 these groups sometimes contain more than 10,000 individuals!\n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\nWhat do the counters do?\n<\/h3>\n

\nCounters work in teams to note the thousands of birds flying overhead each day.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIndividuals may be asked to: \n<\/p>\n

    \n\t
  • identify the presence of non-dominant species in large groups<\/li>\n\t
  • count specific species in mixed flocks<\/li>\n\t
  • detect recent arrivals flying past the site<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \n\tMassive groups may require experienced judgement to keep track of numbers (for example, the percentage of each species or the ability to count by hundreds.\n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

    \n\tCounting sites\n<\/h3>\n

    \nThere are several counting sites in Bocas del Toro:<\/p>\n

      \n\t
    • Bocas Ridge Hotel & Residences<\/li>\n\t
    • Valle de agua (pictured)<\/li>\n\t
    • Gavil\u00e1n Hill<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      \n\tThe hotel is most accessible and may be used as a base of operations (see Pricing, below). Valle de Agua is the next most accessible, easily accessed by car (it can be commuted to from the hotel), but it does not have potable water or electricity. Gavil\u00e1n Hill is the most difficult; counters have to hike in.\n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
