More Birds of Quanacastre, Costa Rica
I took the Swiss Travel Tour to the Verano private ranch. It was horseback riding and zip lining, hot springs and great dinner. I happened to have my long bird lens along so got a few more bird pictures. I had to leave that camera with the driver along with my bag because the zip lining through the jungle wasn't a place for a big over the shoulder bag. A packsack with two shoulder straps would have been fine. I certainly didn't need the big zoom for the shots of that tour. The guide, Allehandra, figured the best birding pictures would be on the river boat tours. As it was I got some interesting
bird pictures so am adding these here. I love the white throated magpie jay. The white winged dove . 
I couldn't figure out for sure what this little brown bird was though it may be the clay coloured robin, the Cposta Rica National Bird.
I liked the group of big birds which were either black or turkey vultures.
