We were just heading back home from a lovely trip to Guatemala in late Jan. 2020 thinking about writing about our birding trip to the cloud forests in search of the quetzals we never found, and write more about the things we did find.
In the airport we heard about a new virus that had been spreading that was at risk of becoming a pandemic. And a blog about ecotourism seemed like a poor idea. But we’ll be posting some things here again, since we’ve been to San Diego
The Oregon coast
To Corpus Christi for a birding festival where we saw a David Sibley keynote (!)
On the way home from the Birdiest Festival in America, we visited Choke Canyon State Park near San Antonio which had really nice birding – lots of Neotropical species like kiskadees and green jays in the US.
And we also spent 25 days in Costa Rica. There’s > 100 photos in our Flickr album at this point and we wrote a series of emails a little over-full of photos that mostly weren’t delivered but will be fine for blog posts.
More to come.
