Costa Rica, Friday, May 26, 2017
Birding Day #2 for Mary and me. We spent the day at La Selva Biological Station and went on several walks: before breakfast, after breakfast, after lunch and late afternoon. In addition, I went out to the Stone Bridge with Joanie for a few minutes after lunch and found a kingfisher.
