Slaty-backed Forest-Falcon in Pipeline Road, Panama
Forest falcons of the genus Micrastur are similar to Accipiter raptors, in terms of hunting behavior and appearance. They are more often heard than seen, so when we had the opportunity to film a very obliging individual, that kept calling despite of our presence, we thought it was worth sharing with everyone!

When it comes to bird / birds of prey, most of us would be thinking about eagles / eagle, falcon / falcons. hawk / hawks or owl / owls.
Birds of prey, or raptors, include species of bird that primarily hunt and feed on vertebrates that are large relative to the hunter.
Additionally, they have keen eyesight for detecting food at a distance or during flight, strong feet equipped with talons for grasping or killing prey, and powerful, curved beaks for tearing flesh.
The term raptor is derived from the Latin word rapio, meaning to seize or take by force.
In addition to hunting live prey, most also eat carrion, at least occasionally, and vultures and condors eat carrion as their main food source.
Despite of the typical appearance you have in mind regarding the birds in this bird category, some species are actually really beautiful.
Here are the 10 most beautiful birds of prey in the world.
These birds are including black baza, pale chanting goshawk, bateleur, black and white hawk eagle, collared falconet, bat falcon, secretarybird / secretary bird, american kestrel, african pygmy falcon, and crested northern caracara.

Costa Rica
Costa Rica's remarkable biodiversity comes wrapped in a rainbow of colors -- cloud rainforest dressed in a hundred shades of green; pristine beaches of white, beige and black sand; waterfalls of turquoise and jade; red volcanoes and romantic orange sunsets.
Anyone who loves the outdoors will savor Costa Rica's wealth of national parks and wildlife reserves. This peaceful country remains center stage, the star of Central America. It has no army, and it enjoys one of the highest literacy rates in the world. Travelers can be as active as they choose, experiencing a bird's-eye view on a walk through treetop canopies, or skipping across the waves in an ocean outrigger. There are opportunities for mountain biking, rafting, horseback riding, hiking, bird watching, world-class sports fishing, zip lining canopy tours and rappelling in waterfalls. There is also the chance to spend time with the indigenous Maleku people of the Arenal and northern region, learning about their lives and skills for arts and crafts. The Children's Eternal Rainforest is the largest private reserve in Central America, and has been declared part of the Peace and Water Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO. Costa Rica is just the place to scale an active volcano or reenergize with a luxurious spa treatment. One of the world's best organized countries for nature-based travel, Costa Rica also features a range of delightful inns, hotels, and lodges in exceptional settings, including excellent beach resorts along the Pacific coast. Need another reason to love Costa Rica? Beyond all this glorious nature and adventure, Costa Rica is serious about sustainability. It is striving to reach complete carbon neutrality by 2021 -- an ambitious but worthy goal.

Belize Raptor Research Institute - Hawkwatch Certification Program
The Belize Raptor Research Institute (BRRI) is a non-profit organization that strives to protect Neotropical raptors in Belize through research, education, and partnerships.
Join the members of the Belize Raptor Research Institute for a day of hawkwatching at Punta Gorda's Cattle landing, a convergence site for many migrating raptors. Little is known about raptor migration through Belize, especially of the Hook Billed Kite, a soaring raptor who's path of migration has been a mystery previously. BRRI's hawkwatching certification program serves the dual purpose of researching these and the many other raptors migrating over Belize, as well as to educate and even certify Belizeans in hawkwatching.
These studies have been undertaken to gain valuable information on these threatened species by learning about their natural history, movements, home-range, habitat utilization, prey requirements, threats and management needs.
