FEATURED DESTINATION 
Tandayapa Bird Lodge, Ecuador
Tandayapa
"Tandayapa is certainly not to be missed on any trip to Ecuador. This spectacular lodge is ideally situated in a region that is famous for its Choco endemics(birds that are only found in northwest Ecuador and southwest Colombia). Special birds like Giant Antpitta, Toucan Barbet and Ocellated Tapaculo are regularly sighted close to the lodge and the exceptional hummingbird feeders attract hummers of all shapes and sizes. To top it all off the service and food make for an unforgettable overall birding experience"

TESTIMONIALS
BLUE-NECKED TANAGER
"I love this show. I DVR every episode. I especially enjoy the ones that I may never get a chance to see. It gives me an opportunity to "travel" and see and learn things that I could never do on my own. My 3 year old daughter watches the show with me and I am trying to have her learn about birds and nature, so we love the show. Thanks so much for bringing birding to mass audiences." Susan, Utah

"This is a serious show for those who enjoy adventure, all around the world. I am still in my PJ's while I eat my breakfast and travel with James on "Birding Adventures" that truly take my breath away. I have already created a dream list of places to visit inspired by your shows. Even if you are not a birder-"Birding Adventures" is for you! Between canopying in Costa Rica, or air-boating in Texas, I feel inspired every weekend. Love you guys, thanks!" Hannah, Georgia

Marvelous Manakins
The manakin family is one of the most interesting and highly sought-after families of birds. We recently filmed a 4-part series with Tropical Birding in Ecuador. Two particular species of manakins that we featured were the bizarre Club-winged Manakin and the peculiar White-bearded Manakin. 

Both these birds engage in an elaborate mating display where the males produce strange noises from their wings to attract females. The Club-winged Manakin in particular produces one of the weirdest sounds in the bird world and scientists are still trying to figure out exactly how the bird does it.

Watch the full episode below to learn more about these fascinating birds.
