Upcoming Events at Ecoturismo Yucatán

 November 2015 Yucatan Bird Festival Toh, Conferences, workshops, etc. and the Xox chi ich.

---

13 years ago, the magic of the turquoise plumage of the Turquoise-browed Motmot (Eumomota superciliosa) inspired the creation of the Yucatan Bird Festival Toh; this bird species is associated with Mayan archaeological sites, and its feathers frame the reflection of the sky on the calm waters of the cenotes (sinkholes) of Yucatan.
 
From March to November the Festival hosts many activities related to the incredible bird diversity of Yucatan, like birdwatching tours, conferences, workshops, photography and drawing contest, activities for kids and so much more.
 
​The pinnacle of the festival, the bird-a-thon xoc chi ch (in the Maya language literally means (bird count), will take place from Saturday 22th to Sunday 23th of November 2014 in Merida and other amazing places in Yucatan.​​​

Twelveth  Yucatan Toh Bird Festival.

The Yucatan Bird Festival “TOH” takes place in a state which has traditionally served as the region’s cultural center. It’s a perfect place to combine birds with visits to Maya archeological zones and rural indigenous communities. Join us for well-packed three days of birding in company of local guides. Yucatan is home to 445 of the 548 bird species registered for the entire peninsula.

 There are exhibits and conferences in the colonial city of Merida prior to going afield. An important and fun part of the festival is the birding competition for all levels of abilities called xoc ch’ich – word in maya that means “bird count”.Eleventh Yucatan Toh Bird Festival.
