For example, we might just enjoy the calls and antics of those White-throated Sparrows while searching for a Harris’s. This is how we saw 300 plus species in three days on day trips out of the San Jose area and it’s only one of several options: High and middle elevations. Some lowland and foothill birding.

I sample birding on Poas more often than at other sites in Costa Rica because it’s close to home and makes for a worthwhile guided day trip from the San Jose area. Lot of wrens and thrushes : Quite a few members of these families also chatter and sing from thickets and forest. Cabanis’s Ground-Sparrow.

One of the advantages of Morelia as a birding/tourist destination is that we receive direct flights from Houston on United, Dallas/Fort Worth on American, and Los Angeles, Oakland, San Jose (California), and Chicago/Midway on the Mexican carrier Volaris. And go ahead, bring the family. Come bird Morelia.

I caught this Lark Sparrow at San Blas, near Magdalena Bay , just as the sun was setting. There is a small Federal Reserve, set aside on the white sandy beach near San Jose Del Cabo, in order to protect the nesting Least Terns. I must have keep 400 images in the file of just this one species.
