Red-headed Barbet
Lineated Woodpecker
A male Shining Honeycreeper
This brightly-colored species was enjoyed
at "Los Cosingos" in southern Costa Rica,
the home of the late naturalist Alexander Skutch,
during the FONT tour there in March 2010.
With as bright a blue as the
above honeycreeper,
a male Blue Dacnis
With blue and yellow,
a Yellow-crowned Euphonia
Olive-backed Euphonia
Speckled
Tanager
A male Flame-colored Tanager
Fiery-throated
Hummingbird
With this much color on one bird,
imagine how much when 6 or more of them
are together!
Even a sparrow or two in Costa Rica
is boldly patterned and with bright color.
This is a White-eared Ground Sparrow.
And lastly here,
one of the most famous of Costa Rica's many birds,
the Resplendent Quetzal
in good light is brilliantly colored
