Caribbean Elaenia (Elaenia martinica) kept hiding in the trees and was partially open for only a few seconds. A great find for this species with only a few hundred recorded sightings in Belize, mainly in the cayes.

#FlyDay For a second consecutive day I was out looking for a Lark Sparrow after a rare sighting in Belize City. I was unsuccessful, but for the 2nd day in a row, I got a good look at an immature Brown Booby (Sula leucogaster) foraging in the area. #BirdsofBelize #BirdsSeenIn2026 #birds #BirdsofX #birdwatching
