Birds (passerines) of Costa Rica

This, the third bird gallery, is the largest as it covers the greatest percentage of the birds. The passerines also include some of the most secretive forest dwelling birds, and as a result, some of the most difficult birds to photograph. I never did get an opportunity to photograph an antbird, even though I did see several species.
