Mexico: Oaxacan Adventure with Schoodic Institute and Sabrewing

Join Sabrewing Nature Tours and Schoodic Institute on January 9-19, 2027 for an exciting birding adventure in Mexico! Our Mexico Oaxaca Adventure begins in Huatulco, where the lush Pacific lowlands and mangrove forests offer a vibrant introduction to southern Mexico’s birdlife. We’ll explore tropical dry forest trails in Huatulco National Park, scan coastal lagoons near Juchitán for shorebirds and waterbirds, and venture inland to Ojo de Agua for a shot at specialties like Rose-bellied Bunting and Turquoise-crowned Hummingbird. A short pelagic trip off the coast promises seabirds like shearwaters, storm-petrels, and boobies before we head into the mountains for an entirely different birding experience. As we ascend into the Sierra Madre del Sur, we trade coastal heat for cool pine-oak forests and cloud forest vistas. Our time in Pluma de Oro and San José del Pacífico is rich with Mexican endemics, Red Warbler, Dwarf Jay, Gray-barred Wren, and Golden Vireo among them. Staying in… View Source
