Christmas bird count 2017



And so another Christmas bird count behind us, most years I did go to finca Hartmann in Santa Clara and also this year,  my favorite spot on "the other side" of the Volcano Baru.
It was sunny and a nice breeze, nice people and good birds.
Here some impressions...



family Hartmann thank you for the hospitality and coffee mmmm

"My" birds of the day was  (probably a pair) the 2 white crowned Parrots, I did see them last time, year ago in Bocas del Toro region, nearby Palo seco forest reserve, but then they were in flight, so now I could even take a picture and had a long look at them!


 and even a short video!     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-1FdHNNKLg

It was a good day, down below the bird list.
