Birdwatching
At dawn, the ranch awakens.
At first light the birds wake — meet some of the species that await you here.
A silent, contemplative experience to discover Rancho Las Yucas. At dawn the ranch comes alive with sound, movement, birds and soft light — designed for families, photographers and nature lovers who want to connect, unhurried.
Signature bird
Broad-billed Hummingbird
Colibrí Pico Ancho
Cynanthus latirostris
An emerald jewel with a flame-red bill: the Broad-billed Hummingbird hums the garden at dawn, hovering flower to flower, its throat catching the first light.
