Bird Photography in Cuba with Deb and Jim Babbitt

Описание: Our October 18, 2023 BVAS Monthly Program was on Bird Photography in Cuba with Deb and Jim Babbitt.

Cuba is a fascinating destination for birding enthusiasts, due to its diverse range of habitats and its unique avian species. With over 400 species of birds, including 25 endemic species found only in Cuba, it offers a rare opportunity for birdwatchers to spot some of the most unusual and rare birds in the world. Cuba's lush forests, wetlands, and coastal areas provide excellent habitats for a variety of birds, such as the Cuban Tody, the Cuban Trogon, and the Bee Hummingbird—the world's smallest bird. In addition to its rich birdlife, Cuba also offers a unique cultural experience, with a vibrant music scene, cool vintage cars, delicious cuisine, and a rich history. Birding in Cuba is an unforgettable experience that combines natural beauty, fascinating culture, and exciting wildlife viewing.
Jim and Deb Babbit have been obsessed with bird photography since 2010. Upon retiring, they increased their travel adventures and fell in love with the neotropics and the birds that call this environment home. They have been fortunate enough to travel to over 15 countries and photograph incredible birds, including the unique and colorful birds of Cuba. What started as a simple hobby has become a true passion.
