You can also see some migratory birds such as sheep, white pelicans and collared geese.

Among the most common species in the region are: hawks, troglodytes, woodpeckers, roadrunners, xanthus hummingbirds, and gray thrashers.

Along the shoreline you can see diving duck, green-necked Canadian and Canadian Albino Pelican.

In the highest part of the Sierra de la Laguna, right in the lagoon you can see birds such as: the peregrine falcon (falco peregrinus), the black (parabuteo unicinctus) and the red-tailed (buteo jamaicensis), queleles, hawks, owls and owls. Among the endemics is the xantus hummingbird (hylocharis xantusii), known only in this sierra.
