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.

I’m sure quite a number just keep on going through the tropical night sky, find their way to woods in Nicaragua or further north but a good number do indeed stop in Costa Rica, go birding there now and you will see them. The same goes for Panama, Nicaragua, Honduras, and other places along their migration routes.

Its range extends as far as Nicaragua in Central America, where it is joined, in Costa Rica and Panama, by The Slaty Flowerpiercer. The Cinnamon-rumped Flowerpiercer is the only flower-piercing game in town if you live in North America. And yes, Mexico is part of North America, not Central or South America.)

The first words describing this species in Wikipedia are “poorly-documented” Before 2015, when I first saw it in Paso Ancho, it had only been reported twice on eBird outside of its Sierra Madre Occidental breeding range: once from Taxco, Mexico, and another report from Nicaragua.

I’m quite fond of the Black-headed Siskin , a tropical finch found from Mexico to Nicaragua. In mid-winter, Summer Tanagers often molt to a yellow color with red blotches, so it is good to see them when they first arrive. Several females would show up further on.

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.

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.

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.
