Another Bird Surprise for Costa Rica- Buff-collared Nightjar!

10,000 Birds

SEPTEMBER 17, 2022

A bit larger than the Netherlands but with less land than Latvia and Ireland, in terms of territory, we rank 126. The sightings raise several questions. As far as countries go, Costa Rica is at the smaller end of the spectrum. With good reason, lots of birders visit Costa Rica and we also have a good sized local birding community.
