Aplomado Falcon
Falco femoralis

Aplomado Falcon is of particular interest to U.S. birders in that the only American population of the species is considered "unlistable" by ABA standards (the birds in southern Texas are part of a reintroduction project). This species has been found regularly around El Chirú in southern Coclé Province, the easternmost records of the species in Panama. This species is found sporadically well to the south and east of this area in other countries, and should be looked for in any dry, coastal habitat throughout.
