Opis
Santa Ana National Wildlife Refuge is a top birding destination known for its resident species like Green Jay, Plain Chachalaca and Great Kiskadee. It's situated along two major migratory routes for many birds. It is also at the northern-most point for many species whose range extends south into Central and South America. Making Santa Ana - though small in size - a great spot for birdwatching. Spring warblers are abundant with more than 35 species seen, including Golden-winged Warbler, Magnolia Warbler, Northern Parula and Tropical Parula, American Redstart, Palm Warbler and Yellow-breasted Chat.
Hundreds of thousands of migrating raptors fly over the refuge in spring and fall, including Broadwing hawks, Northern harriers and Peregrine falcons. Santa Ana National Wildlife Refuge’s rarest raptors, the Hook-billed kite and Gray hawk, are seen occasionally.
