had a fun start to the day at Hotel Bougainvillea, then drove north 65 miles to Sarapiqui with a stop at Soda Cinchona (“soda” means “cafe”) for a tamale snack and to watch birds at their feeders.
Our trip total is up to 65 species, 30 of those were added today, and 10 of those are new to my life list. High today was a sunny 88° ☀️.
