We had a free day when we first arrived to Costa Rica.  So we scoped out a cool botanical garden, a coffee farm that works towards being bird-friendly, and an amazing hotel with birding gardens!  FYI we talk a lot about the logistics of our first-time in Costa Rica on our own with cars and driving.   Main Story Begins at: 10:35Show notesBuy me a CoffeeBirding is the world BrazilFlock To Marion AgainIC4WB Rio Grande Valley Birding Festival Café CristinaHotel BougainvilleaLankester Botanical Garden eBird Trip ReportIntro Bird Call: Short-billed Pigeon (Recorded August 14th, 2024, Costa Rica)Outro Bird Call: Rufous Motmot (Recorded August 14th, Costa Rica)Support the showConnect with us at...
