Hello Friends,
A couple of weeks ago our good friend Bart Brown was here with us in Costa Rica. We took him in search of a few really difficult target species. We visited Punta Morales - Cano Negro - La Selva - and Silent Mountain near Turrialba.
On our first day we found several Wilson's Phalaropes, which was a first for Bart in Costa Rica.
Next in Cano Negro we were able to locate the very localized Yellow-bellied Tyrannulet!
Our third new bird for Bart came in La Selva. Smashing views from 15 feet away of the skulking Slaty-breasted Tinamou.
The trip up Silent Mountain was difficult, but very productive. We had excellent views of Rufous-rumped Antwren and quick, but satisfactory views of Sharpbill - both new for Bart.
Bart now stands at 749 in the country, just one more bird and we get to yell out Bingo!!!
Here are some photos that were taken during our trip with Bart.
Enjoy and Good Birding, STEVEN EASLEY
