In Costa Rica, our July birding news usually consists of interesting sightings during the mid-summer tours. I savor the timeless experience of scanning these tropical waves for storm-petrels and lost jaegers. Although this robin-sized raptor occurs in quite a few parts of Costa Rica, you would never ever know it.

Witnessing the Champions of the Flyway race, seeing social media coverage of the World Series of Birding, participating in the Global Big Day, and doing my own on April 24th has got me thinking about strategies for better Big Days in Costa Rica. They got all three potoo species in Costa Rica. Targets or habitat?

Fighting, bickering, and more fighting – I think it’s safe to say that most of us experience enough of arguing, fighting, and other awful toxic behaviors to not need any more of it in our lives. I’m sorry, but the ravenous mini, modern dinos are jerks. C’est moi, Green-crowned Brilliant , le jerk!
