Costa Rican (new) birds

 

While in Costa Rica, John realized that he can relax more at a place where he has already been ... because ... wait for it ... he has already seen all those birds. 

This was not a birding trip, however, on one of our hikes, he was greeted by five birds that he had never seen before. Just the fact that we were taking the trip a few weeks later than our last trip, meant that there were some birds he didn't get to see the first time. 

He was most excited about the Southern Lapwing as Sidge and Abigail had spotted that the previous trip but despite John's attempts, it never happened.
