Most birds native to Costa Rica can be spotted all year long, but those devoted to the patient hobby of birdwatching find that the best time to spot the country's resident birds is during the dry season, which runs from November to April. It's during this time that birds come out more frequently (as there is less rain) and can be heard singing nearly everywhere. Also, visibility is greatly improved during this season.
If you're looking for migratory birds, traveling to Costa Rica from September through November provides a window of opportunity. If you're specifically seeking the famed quetzal, you may want to get some local advice on the best areas to find these long-tailed Central American birds, though they are often found feeding on wild avocados in the cloud forests during during the dry season.
Costa Rica is home to endemic species found nowhere else on Earth. The exceptional number of national parks and wildlife refuges all play a part in helping to protect these animals, while simultaneously allowing travelers to catch a glimpse.
The best times to spot wildlife depend on which animals you'd most like to see. Some well known attention-grabbers, like the Capuchin monkey, can be seen (and heard) year-round. But those seeking to spot sea turtles should head to the Caribbean coast between February and October, or during April and May for leatherback turtles. Generally, you'll want to rise early — well before sunrise — and head to a reserve just as the animals wake up.
Hummingbirds are especially abundant in the cloud forest of Costa Rica such as Monteverde, La Paz Waterfall Gardens, Bajos del Toro, and the Losa Angeles Cloud Forest.
With Birding Costa Rica Tour, you can set up a personal birding trip in Costa Rica. You can choose a package with up to 18 birding hotspot, or request a very unique birding trip in Costa Rica
You are certain to see more birds with a professional naturalist guide in Costa Rica. These guides know bird calls, can often mimic them, and can detect unique birding behaviors that the untrained eye or ear would miss. Furthermore, they’ll often bring professional bincoluars along so you can get a closer look at the birds you come across than you otherwise would have.
Fortunately we have this cover. At Hotel de Campo in Caño Negro Refuge, all birding tours are private and guided. You will not waisting any moment of your trip. Birding in Caño Negro with experienced guide is a must.
Meanwhile, if you are looking to travel around Costa Rica to know as much as possible birding hotspot, check out with Renzo. It is a specialist tour guide for birdwatching. Visit birdingcostaricatours.com
Definitely the National Refuge of Caño Negro is a great birding hotspot in Costa Rica to watch parrots.
It is a place easy to visit (you can arrive with your own car), and take a birding boat tour. There, you can trust on the experienced birding guide of Hotel de Campo.

We recently have the visit of Greg Lavaty, a Texas birding photographer, with Linda Murdock and Bill.
They …spend a couple of nights at Hotel de Campo. It was a pleasure birding with them.
They arrive in the afternoon of a September tour for Birdwatching in Costa Rica, promoted by Greg. Please have a look at Greg’s web page for more info.
As soon as they come off the car, Greg, Linda and Bill took their camera, and begin birding in our botanica garden. A nice afternoon. They’re was looking for the Spot-breasted wren.
Day 1 Of Birdwatching Boat Tour.
The next day we wake up early, and we decide to go river up, in a more foresty part of the refuge. It was a clear sunny morning, perfect for photography.
Just outside of the peer, a Jacana with the chicks. Gorgeous little birds walking on the lilies, under the care of his dad. October is a good month of the year to take beautiful pictures of these little fragile birds.
From the very high, posted on a high perch, a prey bird that Linda likes. It was a Roadside hawk. After immortalizing a few iguanas, green herons, and great egrets, we went into the river, where we also spot a Pale-billed woodpecker, jumping around the tree.
That day, and the day after, green ibis was very active. We spot them on the ground foraging, on trees, flying… I am sure they have a good collection of this mystic bird.
We find a very collaborative pygmy kingfisher. In this season they normally hide in the forest, where the river flood out. They prefer fishing in very shallows water, far away from humans. But this one gives us enough time to have very nice pictures.
Along the river, ringed and amazon kingfisher was spotted here and there. In Caño Negro we have 6 kinds of kingfishers. From the biggest Ringed kingfisher to the very small pygmy kingfisher, you can spot the belted kingfisher (mostly from November to April), the green kingfisher, the green-and-rufous kingfisher, the Amazon kingfisher.
Caño Negro refuge is not only about birds. It is also about monkeys.
We can spot the three kinds of them: the spider monkeys, the howler monkey, and the capuchin monkey.
Day 1 Of Birdwatching Boat Tour.
The next morning we went mostly for prey birds. They’re was very interested in yellow-headed caracara, but unfortunately, we could not spot it, just the crested caracara.
A very nice keel-billed toucan show up, and dozens of pictures were taken. At the end of the tour, we could spot a couple of Snail kites, one of them a juvenile. They’re perch on a little stick in the middle of the lagoon and flying around in search of a snail.
I have to thanks Greg, Linda and Bill to give me the privilege to let us guide them around Caño Negro. I spend a very nice time birding.

You can spot the laughing falcon all year around. He likes …open areas, high tree without leaves, close to the lagoons or in forest.

According to the Birds Of Costa Rica field guide, Milvado chimachima is not very common …around Caño Negro. Even the digital app guide of eBirds refer August as a slow month for this birds. Beside so, actually it was very active. We have the chance to spot it during few weeks around final of July first 2 weeks of August. Actually they was flying in couple, and in certain occasions we spot juveniles.
According to oiseaux-birds.com, they like to stay “sitting on the back of cattle or other mammals and taking ticks from them”. So, when you are in birding Costa Rica for the Yellow headed Caracara, try to look for some high dead tree, in an open area around lagoons, where you can also find some cows.
Yellow-headed Caracara is omnivorous. You can find it walking on the ground looking for carrion, dead animals, like caiman or snakes. This bird like road kills, insects and caterpillars, amphibians, small birds, and fish. Finally, you can also see it consuming the fruits of the oil palm Elaeis, maize and horse dung.
It is well known for picking off ticks from cattle, and it is often seen perched on their back.
In Caño Negro Wetlands, definitely, it can find all kind of food he likes.
Neotropical Birds indicate on his description, that the habitat of the Yellow headed Caracara start in Costa Rica south, all over central and South America. And Caño Negro is the northern place you can find it. But actually, is very present in Caño Negro Wetland.
The Yellow-headed Caracara is a small, pale caracara of open habitats in lowlands from the north of Costa Rica, with a very important presence in Caño Negro wetlands.
When you organize your birding vacation in Costa Rica, keep in mind that in Caño Negro you can spot many kind of birds of pray, such as very important the Snail Kite, the White tailed Kite, Black collared Hawk, laughing falcon, bat falcon, and many others.
