To celebrate this Earth Day we are super excited to share the news that the Red-throated Caracara (Ibycter americanus) family that we’ve been monitoring since 2013 has returned to the nesting site, and we will be following up, hoping for a successful breeding season for this enigmatic and beautiful birds of which there is still so much to learn about.

To celebrate Valentine’s Day, check out this Wav

To celebrate Valentine’s Day, check out this Waved Albatrosses (Phoebastria irrorata). Captured here during their mating dance in Galapagos Birding and Nature tour last August.

While most species of albatrosses are either concentrated to the south of the Tropic of Capricorn or the north of the Tropic of Cancer, Waved Albatross occurs almost exclusively off the northwest coast of South America, and is thus the only species to live exclusively within tropical latitudes.

The species breeds primarily on Isla Española (Hood Island) in the Galapagos Archipelago, but also has a small colony on the Isla de la Plata off Ecuador.

The breeding season begins when these albatrosses return to land in March. Nonbreeding albatrosses range at sea off the coasts of Ecuador and Peru, where they feed on large fish and squid. Due to the nocturnal habits of the squid, Waved Albatross often feeds primarily at night.

White-throated Magpie-jay (Calocitta formosa). A

White-throated Magpie-jay (Calocitta formosa).

Always a favorite during our birding trips. In Costa Rica they forage in groups, in the lowlands and middle elevations of the Pacific slope, West of Central Valley and West of Arenal. They favor tropical dry forest, but sometimes are found in more humid habitats.

This individual was photographed at @laensenadacr during our current birding trip with friends from North Carolina.

Its been a year since the Rufous-vented Ground-Cuckoomania.

A year ago a group of this Ghosts of the Rainforest was spotted at the @childrenseternalrainforest and delighted birders from the Costa Rican Birding Community and beyond! Great friends from Colombia, USA, Finland and beyond got to enjoy the wonderful nature event.

Since, reports of this amazing species are happening more often, we actually got one a month ago at the @arenalobservatorylodge and right now there are two of them showing at @parqueaventurassanluis .

To follow up with more uncommon species, check out

To follow up with more uncommon species, check out this Thicket Tinamu (Crypturellus cinnamomeus) that was quietly and peacefully foraging the forest floor at Rincon de la Vieja National Park, completely oblivious of us super excited birders by having it that close, actually sometimes way too close for the camera.

An elusive and secretive species that in Costa Rica can be found in the Tropical Dry Forest habitat.

Birding in the highlands of the Talamanca mountain

Birding in the highlands of the Talamanca mountain range always brings good birds.
Like a couple of stunning Long-tailed Silky-Flycatchers (Ptiliogonys caudatus) captured this morning birding the grounds of Savegre Hotel.
This beautiful Costa Rica and Western Panama endemic is not an actual flycatcher as its name suggest, instead one of its closest relatives is the also incredible Phainopepla.

Resplendent Quetzal (Pharomachrus mocinno)

“A supremely lovely bird; the most beautiful all things considered, that I have ever seen.
He owes his beauty to the intensity and arresting contrast of his coloration, the resplendent sheen and glitter of his plumage, the elegance of his ornamentation, the symmetry of his form, and the noble dignity of his carriage”

Dr. Alexander Skutch, 1944.

At Birding Experiences we are thankful for all the great birding this year has brought to us, and for the opportunity of showing birds to friends from all over the world…!
