During this past week in our garden I have seen up to eleven Reed Buntings,eight Goldfinch,two Siskin and one Lesser Redpoll.
We have only had one sighting of a Blackcap in the garden this winter,way back in December.Our Ivy berry crop this year was rather poor,so perhaps this has something to do with it.
A very quick look at the river this morning viewed from the path around the Sunken marsh produced (127)Teal (1)Redshank (4) Shelduck and (2)Great Black-backed Gulls.

Villa Lapas
The Villa Lapas has large lush grounds and its Forest with trails,borders onto the Carara National Park.The Waterfall Road (public dirt track)which is good for seeing a large selection of birds runs past the hotel.
