COSTA RICA - 2020

We had 15 glorious days of fun, laughter and, of course, some excellent birding. The weather was very kind to us as we had no rain, only very light showers and one late afternoon downpour. There are a whole string of highlights that I could mention but you can read about those in this report. However, I will mention the two superb boat cruises we took and the visit to Copé’s Garden. All three stand out in my memory and were outstanding birding excursions. Our tally was over 450 species despite missing a few regular sightings, but everyone went home happy with a vault full of memories and thousands of pictures to treasure for ever.
