I’m beginning to take palms for granite! These are by the church at central park. Like steeples they point to God! Uplifting!

I’m slowing down after a busy schedule during Reagan’s visit here though still having to learn how to truly rest!  🙂  I’m back to just one Spanish Class again since Zaray got a high school teaching position and can no longer teach our Tuesday night class at the church. And my conversational tutor Jason has moved to Liberia to live with his sister for awhile. So I’m on my own with Spanish and have a little more time to catch up on some work here at home.

But two great trips planned for March!  🙂

• 10-13 March I go to Monteverde with Birding Club + an extra day for Butterfly Garden. See one Bird Checklist for Monteverde
• 22-30 March I will be in Nicaragua (itinerary) for a 7-day birding tour + 2-days in Historic Granada. This is partly to renew my Visa with a little more excitement than just going to the border as in the past! Plus I suddenly realized that I will be there during Easter Week, so maybe some celebration color will be witnessed, though I’m mainly in the forests. 🙂       Birds Checklist for Montibelli Reserve   and     Birds Checklist for El Jaguar Reserve

Birding is an incredible hobby! Here Cornell says “Thank You” to all who helped with the 2015 Christmas Bird Count around the world. Watch the birds where you live! They will give you an incredible sense of joy and peace. And it is even more fun for me to capture many of them in photographs! My growing gallery of Costa Rica Birds now has photos of 161 species and growing monthly plus I’m getting some better images to replace or supplement older ones. Plus I’m about to add a pretty good collection from Nicaragua and already have one from Panama. Fun!
