Learn more of what the Canopy Family has to offer at canopytower.com The Panama Hummingbird Feeder Cam is located on the grounds of the Canopy Tower about 35 miles north of Panama City, Panama. This site is nestled in a vibrant tropical rainforest atop Semaphore Hill within Soberanía National Park. The hummingbird feeders are set on a viewing deck just a short stroll from the Tower’s entrance, where guests can relax and watch a dazzling array of tropical hummingbirds arrive to sip sweet sugar water. Frequent visitors include species like the White-necked Jacobin, White-vented Plumeleteer, Violet-bellied Hummingbird, Long-billed Hermit, and Blue-chested Hummingbird. An Axis Q6318-LE camera is positioned about 15 feet from the feeders, which are replenished several times daily. About Canopy Tower The Canopy Tower is a unique lodge dedicated to birding and wildlife watching in the heart of central Panama. Located on the banks of the Panama Canal, the tower was originally constructed as a radar station in 1965 by the US Military. It was used in the protection of the Panama Canal from 1965 to the early 1990s. Left abandoned by the mid-1990s, the tower was converted into a premier birding lodge by Canopy Family founder Raul Arias de Para in 1999. An observation deck circles around the giant geodesic ball that still sits on top of the Tower, and birders come from all over the world to enjoy the spectacular views from the top over the vast rainforest canopy. The Canopy Tower is the first of a series of three ecotourism ventures developed by the Canopy Family. Their second location at the Canopy Lodge offers a full-service experience specializing in nature tourism with a focus on birds in the picturesque village of El Valle de Antón, right in the center of the gigantic crater of an extinct volcano. Their newest property, Canopy Camp, offers a taste of some of the wildest lowland rainforest in Panama in the Darién region.
