Birding in Costa Rica: La Selva Research Station 2021

#birding #trogon #toucan #sloth #monkey
I recently joined up with a bunch of intrepid birders for a trip to the south Carribean zone of Costa Rica. The La Selva Research Station is to an amazing variety of wildlife. On this trip, we saw three different types of trogons, toucans, hummingbirds, woodpeckers, a manakin, a motmot, a cuckoo, sloths, monkeys, and much more.
If you're interested in learning more about La Selva, here is their website: tropicalstudie...
Thanks to my fellow birders for inviting me. Can't wait for the next one!
Cheers from Costa Rica Bird Cam

Its so beautiful and serene there. Gorgeous birds with their unusual sounds. I think about the people of the Eukraine wishing they could hear peace and serenity but get sirens and bombings instead. What a world!

What camera is being used for the high quality close-up shots?

Hi Nicolas, it's a Canon T6i (AKA D750). Definitely not the latest and greatest. But I have a friend here who is letting me borrow a Canon 100-400 lens L-series lens. It's a big help.
