Colombia is renowned for its incredible avian diversity, a paradise for bird watchers and ornithologists alike. With ecosystems ranging from the Amazon rainforest to the Andean mountains, the country provides an ideal habitat for a vast array of bird species. As of January 2024, Colombia has recorded 1,968 species, cementing its status as the leader in avian biodiversity. The country’s remarkable variety of birds, coupled with ongoing conservation efforts, ensures that it remains a premier destination for bird watchers and a crucial area for bird conservation. This year, as always, Colombia stands proudly at the forefront of global avian diversity, a true testament to its natural wealth and conservation commitment.

The sheer variety of bird species found here is a source of national pride and a treasure for the world. Colombia’s leading position in bird diversity is not just a number; it is a reflection of the vibrant and dynamic ecosystems that thrive within its borders.
