Hey all,

I'm planning a trip to Costa Rica this summer, its been in the works for a
while, but it looks doable this August, for the month. I was wondering if
anyone had a birding site guide that was a good one, or any general advice
for birding and traveling in Costa Rica in August. I am aware that it may
not be the absolute ideal time to go, but I am very limited in my vacation
dates.

On a side note, a trip to Boundary Bay yesterday yeilded the Snowy Owl,
about a quarter mile west of 72nd street, easily seen by walking down the
dike trail. Tried for the Ash-Throated, but no luck with that one.

Thanks in advance for the advice, and good birding!
