Here’s the little patio off my room at La Quinta in Sarapiquí. We will be here for 3 nights as we travel around birding in the area.

And speaking of birding – wow! First day and I’ve photographed over 30 new-to-me birds. And believe me, I did not get pictures of all the birds we saw! But here are a few of my favourites from today:

Emerald Toucanet

Crimson-collared Tanager

Green Honeycreeper
