Achiote Road is the site of Panama Audubon Society's world-famed Christmas Bird Count, which regularly reports over 340 species in a 24-hour period. The road goes through more open habitat than birding sites on the Pacific side of Panama but features a variety of Caribbean-side specialties not likely to be seen on the other end of the canal zone.
Fort Lorenzo National Park is a largely grassy area overlooking the Caribbean and is the site of the old Spanish fortress, largely destroyed when the English pirate Henry Morgan captured it in 1670. The park is primarily of historical interest and is not a prime birding location.
