In between 11 th of March and now 31th of March

And suddenly it is almost 1th of April.
From my last post on 11th of March untill today , I did go out with a lot of great bird watchers. Very enjoyable.
Did some birding on our farm of course.
Love this time with all the migration birds and of course nice Hawk migration still going on.

red tailed Hawk:

What is very interesting is that I never did see so much magenta throated Woodstars in a lot of different places in the 18 years that we live here.

It is going very well with them.

This male was on 1750 m cloud forest:

This male on our farm:

and these two the right a male feeding  an immature on a level of 1350 m:(new spot)

I do have a nice new spot in a total different area, I love it.

Like all over in the cloud forest there are the nice great fruit trees and of course also there you will see the blue throated Toucanet...

Well "our" birds are in full swing now, so the Trushes are singing and birds are making nest and this immature brown capped Vireo I did see on my new spot...sweet...

Three wattled Bellbirds are spreading out more...I think the groups are getting every year bigger and bigger.

Quetzales all over.

The peg billed Finches are looking for nest material at Respingo (trail head Quetzal trail)...that is great...still a lot of Bamboo seeds there, so plenty of food for them.

Last week the first scarlet Tanagers on our farm and the common Potoo on our farm is a happy bird...

I am totally ready for some mud and rain... March is pretty dry..

The clouds are coming in...the weather is weird...the rain will come soon.

In the meantime I did have this morning  great birdwatching hours with a nice birding family, was a cloudy morning...our eyes were fighting with the very bright cloudy sky, but we did have a good time...good birds.

I will add a list from this trip down below.

Last week I was with two beginner birders from Sweden, they and I had a great time.

In the cloud forest they did had a laugh. In Sweden there is a tradition .

With Christmas there is a Disney movie on the television and they were thinking of that movie when they were in the cloud forest while watching a lot of different Hummingbirds.

I did watch it  and I totally agree ... it is also funny, when I think of all those bird picture taking people.

This is the bird list of today...I did not make pictures or so...like the other trips and outings before...too busy with watching all the birds...

A great Hawk migration today with a lot of mixed groups.Very color full.
