Pretty good list, huh? Of course, it helped that I was in the Yucatan.
Forty-five of those I saw in one five-hour stroll in the jungle with a 
Mayan guide. He was great. I want to recommend his Mayan cooperative 
of nature guides. Here is a link:

Check out their other tours as well, on the website. Going to one of 
the all-inclusive resorts, such as Sandos Caracol, is not horribly 
expensive, and offers plenty of things for non-bird-fanatic family 
members to do while you're out with a guide one or two mornings.
