For about 10 days, we took a vacation to Costa Rica, mostly to photograph some birds. We stayed 3 days at each of three places --
Rancho Naturalista (a birding B&B on the Caribbean side),
the Savegre Lodge (at high elevation),
and the Cristal Ballena resort hotel (on the Pacific side).
This gallery is a collection of almost 100 different birds that we were fortunate enough to see, arranged alphabetically by their common names.
There were also several dozen other species that we saw, but did not get acceptable images of.
We are now looking forward to another trip there, it is an absolutely fantastic place.
