Costa Rica (Continued) Tilajari Hotel

We next spent seven nights at the Tilajari Resort Hotel in the Caribbean lowlands.This Hotel has large lush grounds and is situated on the banks of the San Carlos river.

I`ve found it difficult to find out much about the birds that occur at Tilajari.So I thought it may be useful to list the birds that I have found there.
