p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · A few shots from April (Costa Rica)

Hi everyone!

As many of you probably know, it is relatively easy to shoot some bird species that frequently visit feeders in Costa Rica.

Some other species require extensive work in order to come up with something, beautifully, Costa Rica offers a little bit of both worlds!

I was lucky to have three Canadian friends who were happy to join me on a 14 day photo tour!

Thanks for looking!

Chestnut-headed Oropendola, this is way less common than the Montezuma

Perhaps the most beautiful bird after the quetzal, golden-browed chlorophonia

Two female green-crowned brilliants fighting over a juicy flower

King and black vultures

Simply an exposure nightmare! Passerini´s Tanager

Resplendent Quetzal visiting an artificial nest

Crested Carcara

Violet Sabrewing is Costa Rica´s largest hummingbird, image taken at my multiple flash set up

Wow, these are all beautiful! The oropendola could not have picked a better perch.
YGMV too.

These are a delight to view Juan. Looks like a natural feeder was used for at least one :-}
