Fabio's Passion for Birds: Exploring the Wild and Rare
Fabio's love for birds is more than a hobby; it's a lifelong passion. As the director of Xplore Manuel Antonio, Fabio has dedicated himself to understanding and protecting avian species. His journey has taken him to some of the most remote places, where few have ventured, to observe and document the lives of rare birds.
One of his most remarkable experiences was an exclusive trip with indigenous guides to the mountains of Darien National Park in Panama. Here, Fabio sought out the elusive Harpy Eagle, a bird known for its strength and grandeur. This encounter highlighted his deep interest in birds of prey, or raptors, which he admires for their powerful adaptations and evolutionary lineage tracing back to dinosaurs.
Beyond raptors, Fabio is also fascinated by the vibrant and swift hummingbirds, marveling at their agility and brilliant colors. These encounters have fueled his commitment to conservation and education, as he believes in sharing his passion to inspire others to protect these incredible creatures.
At Xplore Manuel Antonio, Fabio invites all bird enthusiasts to join him on explorations into the natural habitats of these magnificent animals. Whether in the lush rainforests of Costa Rica or the rugged landscapes of Panama, each journey offers a unique opportunity to connect with nature and learn about the avian world.
