The Jabiru

This is the largest bird in Belize!

The Jabiru Stork is a very rare bird and is endangered throughout its range. One of the largest birds in the New World, the Jabiru stands 5 feet tall and has a wingspan of 8 feet. Its heavy bill is about 12 inches long  perfectly designed to catch fish, frogs and snakes.

Recent studies have confirmed that Belize has the healthiest breeding population of jabirus for all of Central America. They arrive in Belize from Mexico in November and nest in the tall pines of the savannas and marshes of the Belizean lowlands. They remain in Belize until June or July, flying north with the first rains.

The largest number of jabiru counted in Belize is 24. Hunting and habitat destruction have decimated a once healthy population throughout the region. The Crooked tree Wildlife Sanctuary, just 33 miles north of Belize City has the largest population of Jabirus in Belize.

What is happening to Belize? A look at Corozal Town Part I

Obviously, BELIZE today stands to benefit from all its wonders and peaceful lifestyle. Corozal in the north of Belize has been labelled as number 6 on places that retirees can go to retire at a comfortable cost to their budget!

This is good news for Belize! The influx of American or European dollars stand to make it better for all! The people who come to retire are older, more settled people! They spend their money wisely yet at a rate more like they did back home in the USA or England and they blend with the native Belizeans!

Corozal, in the North, has long been known for is peaceful, friendly people. Their smiling faces and happy greetings of "Good Maaning" ...Good Morning in the native dialect of Creole that is spoken throughout the length and breadth of the country is natural and just another way you can know you are at home among the Corozaleños!  The people are a mixture of Belizean Creole, Maya Indians, Mestizo and now Chinese, Indians, Americans and Europeans! Corozal is definitely a melting pot of many cultures that live in peace. This is true of all of Belize and is one of the reasons it has survived and is a destination for many visitors who flock its shores by cruiser ships or arrive by plane or road from abroad.

With Town Board elections once again behind us, the town of Corozal has moved on to continue with the business of beautification and upgrading! The latest proof that this town is moving forward is its "Round House" which is an open roofed structure that houses activities like zumba in the evenings and beach parties on the weekends for anyone who wants to rent it out! This new remodelled structure is a welcome sight on the Miami Beach in Corozal Town!

Hats off to the Mayor and the people of Corozal. Hand in hand they can and will make Corozal Number 1 in Belize!

A WISH FOR ALL MY READERS ON ST PATRICK'S DAY
