Home to the highest density of bird species per acre on Earth, Ecuador is a birder’s paradise. With over 1650 species of birds found in many tropical habitats, this small country is considered megadiverse and is relatively compact compared to its massive political neighbors. Ecuador’s small size allows international birders to bird many different biomes, habitats, and elevations within a short time. The proximity between birding sites means more time spent birding and less time traveling.
Ecuador is part of the Tropical Andes and the Choco-Tumbes-Magdalena Hotspots, along with Peru and Colombia. While Ecuador has fewer total bird species than the other two countries, it boasts about 3 times more bird species per surface area than either Colombia or Peru. It’s truly amazing to think that there are so many species packed in such a small country! To put this in perspective, there are approximately 1100 species of birds in the continental US, while the 1600 species found in Ecuador are found in an area roughly the size of Nevada!
The lodges and reserves we visit in Ecuador are well-established, many with outstanding opportunities to view birds from a close distance at well-maintained and active feeding stations. With comfortable lodging, great food, expert guides, friendly people, and amazing birding, Ecuador provides every element of a perfect birding tour.
