This video from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology in the USA says about itself:
Fast Forward Through a 264-Species Birding Big Day
Apr 3, 2013
On April 27, 2012, the expert birders on Team Sapsucker recorded 264 species in 24 hours—a pace of 11 new species every hour of the day, including before dawn and after sunset. This video condenses those 24 hours into 4 minutes. Watch as the birds flash by.
Note: Video shows 236 of the 264 species seen. These photos were not taken during the Big Day.
Big Day is the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s largest conservation fundraiser of the year.

Yes, there are beautiful birds in this video.
Tunesia is an interesting country for birds. Eg, Cap Bon is often the last place in Africa for birds in spring migration, before crossing to Europe. Or their first place in Africa in autumn migration.

Oui, en effet, en Tunisie, on a plusieurs variétés d’oiseaux dont une grande partie sont des migrateurs soit vers l’Europe soit vers l’Afrique.
Aussi, les tunisiens sont de grands éleveurs d’oiseaux.

I think quite some people will be at Cap Bon with binoculars in spring and autumn to see the migration.

Il y a surtout des associations ornithologiques qui suivent les oiseaux et leurs migrations.

Are these associations on the Internet?

Wonder how many birds you can name as they speed by? Great video.

Yes, it would be even harder to name all those birds in Colombia or Venezuela, as over a 1000 bird species live there, many more than in North America.

It is a bit difficult for me, as my only time in North America was a few weeks in western Canada long ago. Bit I tried 🙂
