My Birding Hotspots series is perfect for the casual birdwatcher, or someone wanting an idea of what species can be found at certain locations.

I hope I get most of the species names correct, if there is anything wrong please drop a comment below.

In Nov 2022 we took a 9 day holiday to Costa Rica. We stayed at 4 different locations. San Jose, Tortuguero, Salve Verde and Arenal Volcano.

At each location we will see what species we can find. Note this was not a birding specific trip, so to use the early mornings to go exploring most days, to photograph the wildlife.
