Bird Notes - Costa Rica Birding
http://www.quetzalbycar.com/bird-notes
CR Nat. Parks. By Juan Diego Vargas. I remember looking through my bird field guide on my earliest trips to Costa Rica. Every bird seemed like a possibility as I was oblivious to paying much attention to status and distribution. However, expectations are driven by such status terms as "rare" or "common," and it is worth understanding what they mean. Unfortunately, there is no discussion of these status terms in the first edition of " The Birds of Costa Rica. Hummingbirds are seen regularly for a few weeks.
