Caves Branch Wins Birdathon

Caves Branch Wins Birdathon | Cayo Scoop! The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it
From www.facebook.com - October 13, 2016 1:15 PM

Congratulations, Caves Branch!  They won this year's Birdathon.  One of Cayo's premier lodges which is known for birding, can now say they are the 'birdiest.'  Thanks, Belize Raptor Research Institute and Roni Martinez!

 

"This year, Ian Anderson's Caves Branch Jungle Lodge captured the championship title of the Belize Raptor Research Institute's Annual Bird-a-thon Competition.  Renowned birder aficionado Roni Martinez handed over the H. Lee Jones Cup with the Caves Branch Jungle Lodge plate now included on the trophy and this has now taken up a residence on our wall of fame.  This means Caves Branch Jungle Lodge Estate has been named the "Birdiest" destination in Belize! Woohoooo"

From www.belizeraptorresearch.com - April 16, 2014 3:01 PM

The Belize Raptor Research Institute had their annual Birdathon, and while Lamanai Outpost Lodge won - with 205 species! - Cayo lodges won 4 of the spots, with Mountain Equestrian Trails taking 2nd, Black Rock Lodge taking 3rd, and Mariposa coming in 5th.


"The 2014 Bird-a-thon results are in!  A special thank you to all of the 14 teams and 10 lodges that participated this year in our 4th Annual Bird-a-thon and 2nd Annual Lodge-a-thon competition to make our annual fundraising event very successful... The Bird-a-thon was the buzz of Belize in March as teams competed to find the most bird species in their region... We are still voting on the Best Bird of the Bird-a-thon and will announce it shortly, as well as the winners of various prizes, the team species’ lists and participants.  Every team wins something for participating in this friendly fundraiser for research and conservation in Belize.  Thanks to all of the sponsors for supporting our efforts!"
