Isla Los Pájaros, Nature reserve island in Zulia, Venezuela.
The island extends over 700 hectares of land covered with mangroves and serves as a habitat for green turtles and numerous seabird species.
The emergence of this alluvial island resulted from sediment deposits over time, shaping its current geographical features in the northwestern region of Venezuela.
Local fishermen from Santa Rita municipality maintain traditional fishing practices in the waters surrounding the island, following generations of maritime customs.
Visitors need to arrange transportation through local boat operators in Santa Rita, as the island lacks permanent infrastructure or regular transportation services.
Five resident bird species, including the laughing gull and brown noddy, establish their nesting grounds within the dense mangrove ecosystem of the island.
