Trip Day 2 (Tue, 3/28): We had arrived a day early to insure making our connecting flight to the Osa Peninsula, so we had a full day to bird the grounds of the hotel on our own before starting the guided part of our trip. |

As I was walking back to the hotel, I noticed a birding group all looking in my direction. When I looked up, I saw a couple of oropendulas in the tree above me. |
