2015 Feb/Mar - Costa Rica
We visited Costa Rica in February/March 2015. Our tour was organised by Bob Buckler of Wingspan Bird Tours. It was a great tour, exhausting, but well worth the trip, the wealth of birds was amazing, so many species, bombarding your senses with vibrant colours and fluty song. Can't wait to return.
