We had a great morning trip with Maria Elena, finding 3 endemics and many other species. We visited open country, largely farmland, outside of Todos Santos, plus very briefly the estuary in San Jose del Cabo. Maria Elena knew the birds and the habitat. She used bird song recordings to attract the species we sought. She explained in detail the natural and the cultural history of the area, giving context to what we saw. She also offered perhaps too much info on herself and her operation so that the answers to many of our questions involved the suggestion that we take more of her tours, which are pricey.
