A morning’s birding at the salt pans. Very hot and stifling.

After that we travel on to the Arenal volcano.

In the hotel grounds before breakfast was a Turquoise-browed motmot.

We shared our breakfast terrace with these.

White tailed magpie jay

These have sharp claws – as these people found out.

Coatis

Believe it or not this is a bird.

Great potoo

There are lots of these but they are difficult to photograph

Swallow-tailed Kite

This might be the best view we get of Arenal volcano.
