COSTA RICA BIRD PHOTOGRAPHS
COSTA
RICA BIRD PHOTOGRAPHS
Many of the following
photographs were taken through Swarovski telescopes using various
point-and-shoot digital cameras. However, the most recent photos have been
taken directly with a Nikon Coolpix P510. Where sexual dimorphism exists, a
photo of a female bird is indicated by (f). Most photos are formatted at
880x660 pixels.
Anyone interested in higher
resolution images for publication purposes should feel free to contact
me to discuss such
use.
