Slowly, the shapes of birds were beginning to materialise. We just needed to find somewhere that was less cluttered to allow us some chance of seeing birds! We observed as this bird methodically peeled off sizeable chunks of bark in search of breakfast. Alas, he was gone before I had a chance to lift my camera.

There is a regular birding route in Costa Rica that hits every major habitat in the country and makes an easy, logistical friendly loop. Those time honored sites are always good and result in fantastic, birdy trips but they aren’t the only places in Costa Rica for birding. The view of the forested hillside.

I know many of us seek birds as an escape from dreary, depressing news that seems to permeate almost everything of late. I have been using birding as an escape, it’s why I’m a poor eBirder (I rarely take my phone when I’m already juggling between camera and binoculars). Reproduced with permission.
