There are other birds still expected, I have a few in mind that probably also occur somewhere in the border area with Nicaragua (hello Altamira Oriole and Ladder-backed Woodpecker ). There was also that incredible visit by a Spectacled Petrel at Tortuguero. However, the latest addition wasn’t any of these.

They are a non-migratory species found in western coniferous and mixed-coniferous forests, breeding from Alaska, western Canada, and the United States south through western Mexico to Nicaragua. Although they are normally non-migratory, populations that breed at high elevations typically move to lower elevations during the winter.

One of the original true endemics of Costa Rica became a very near endemic when a small population was found in Nicaragua. Although this beauty also lives in the forests of Honduras, Nicaragua, and western Panama, it is most accessible in Costa Rica. It only lives in middle elevation habitats of southern Costa Rica and western Panama.

The Masked Tityra is a tropical bird found from Mexico to Nicaragua. Still, it was one of those species on my life list that always bothered me a bit. So it was great to really see, and photograph, this one! This one was a true lifer for me. I hope that the next time it will vocalize for me; it apparently sounds something like a grunting pig.

Quetzal also lives in cloud forests in southern Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua. Isn’t that a high elevation endemic too? Nope, in addition to Costa Rica and western Panama, the good old R. Nevertheless, despite it refusing to let Mike or Corey see it, Costa Rica is usually a good place to find one.

Nicaraguan Grackle only lives in marshes around Lake Nicaragua. I guess that isn’t too surprising since a quick 30 minute float down the river goes right into Nicaragua. BUT, we did see lots of other nice birds, most of them bonus species tough to see elsewhere in Costa Rica. We had several Least Bitterns.

The “who knows what else” comes from this site being situated among good-sized tracts of lowland forest connected to the big forest block in Nicaragua.

In Nicaragua, the army patrols beaches to protect sea turtle eggs. In some parts of Africa, rangers receive military training and equipment to defend animals (and themselves) from poachers in pursuit of elephants, rhinos, gorillas, and other endangered species. But now there is increasing talk of more far-reaching action.
