Recenzii

This is a comprehensive bird-finding guide that contains a wealth of information on many sites. Costa Rica has one of the richest avifaunas in the world. There is no better place to begin birding the tropics.
Though I'm an old Panama hand, the appearance of this comprehensive bird-finding guide to Costa Rica's avian riches has me salivating to return to that wonderful country. Meticulously researched, Barrett Lawson's well-organized book describes the country's amazingly wide range of accommodations that are suitable, indeed ideal, for birding. Planning a birding trip to Costa Rica has now been made easy, and that should entice even more birders to get on the next plane bound for San José.
Covers 53 of the best locations, with comprehensive coverage of access, accommodation and the target species at each site...goes above and beyond the call of duty.
This book will be an invaluable tool for those preparing a birding trip and will help birders of all ability levels to get the most out of their time in the field.
