The Hacienda El Viejo Wetlands

On Tuesday, April 25th we hired a guide from Natural Discovery CR to show us the Hacienda El Viejo Wetlands and bird around the perimeter of Palo Verde National Park. The outing included a 90-minute boat ride on the Tempisque River, lunch at the Hacienda, and some car birding in the area before returning to the resort. The focus of this outing was water birds, and the outing did not disappoint!
