Lots of Hummingbirds
Visited the Panama Rainforest Discovery Center last Sunday, after a short walk along the Pipeline road, while a light rain was refreshing the air. There are always lots of hummingbirds to see at the Center around the feeders, but now it seams even more so as so they say there arent that many blooming plants around in the forest, so they go for the easy food. There are many colorful birds to see there like the Blue-Chested-Hummingbird, Jacobin-Hummingbird, White-Vented-Plumeleteer, Hermits and others. The Panama Rainforest Discovery Center is located 1.6 km from the Pipeline Road entrance. After arriving at Gamboa town at the end of Gaillard Highway, drive 3 more km following the signs for Panama Rainforest Discovery Center. The Panama Rainforest Discovery Center is open daily from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. except Christmas and New Year days. Well worth a visit to see the hummingbirds and to go on discovery tours along the jungle paths or to climb the observation tower.
