Costa Rica Birds
This is a collection of images I captured during our (first!) trip to Costa Rica in March 2018. Special thanks go to Alex Arias, our guide. Without his keen eyes and ears we would not have seen nearly as much.
All images were taken using a Nikon D500 and Nikon 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR lens.
Alex. Grumpy as usual! 🙂
