I got a guide, and the day we were going out birding, I got food poisoning, and the trip had to end early. I did get the xantus and the Belding’s Yellowthroat, but I missed out on gray thrasher. Turned out almost everyone at the resort got norovirus. Luckily, it didn’t effect me to bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigOly Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I've used Carlos Urena for the last 6 or 8 years in CR. He is the best!!! Birds by sight and ear. This is very important because in the deep forests one doesn't see many birds but to hear and then follow their calls your success is GREATLY improved. 506-835-43523....  curenach.cr@gmail.com.  Because of family things we won't make it to CR this year. He is very kind, speaks good english and fun to be around. Be sure to mention my name. Chris Llewellyn, he makes all of the in CR arrangements. I promise you won't be disappointed with him. One may spend a little more $ using guides but you will see so much more and be safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One guide is all you will need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
