Travelling Birder 1996 [July] Michael Delesantrohttp://www.geocities.com/RainForest/2240/Taninul.htmI am always looking for easily reached places in Mexico that offer the variety of habitats that produces a great trip. I wasn`t disappointed on two recent trips (June and July 1996)... 1999 [July] - Michael Delesantrohttp://maybank.tripod.com/Mexico/SanLuisPotosi-07-99.htmIn early July my wife and I traveled from South Texas to Xilitla, and back, by way of El Naranjo.

Rain hampered our birding and we spent more time in the car than we would like, but we managed to put together this list. I thought it was especially nice to see the toucanet and four trogons in one day! 2000 [January] - Michael Delesantrohttp://maybank.tripod.com/Mexico/Tamaulipas-01-2000.htmEl Naranjo Area and El Cielo Biosphere Reserve - A group from the Fort Worth Audubon Society toured from January 20th to 24th, 2000 in the El Naranjo and El Cielo regions of Eastern San Luis Potosi and Southwestern Tamaulipas.

The demand for the one trip originally scheduled was great enough to warrant a second trip being scheduled but, unfortunately for those who changed their mind, late cancellations meant that both trips went with very small numbers... 2004 [May] - Phil & Charlotte Bensteadhttp://www.birdtours.co.uk/tripreports/mexico/mexico13/mex-may-04.htmThe key species to see on this itinerary are the following regional endemics not found elsewhere: maroon-fronted parrot, red-crowned parrot, Tamaulipas pygmy-owl, tawny-collared nightjar, tufted jay, Altamira yellowthroat (though also in northern Veracruz), crimson-collared grosbeak and Worthen's sparrow...
