Hoffman's Woodpecker (male)
Cafe & Macadamia, Lake Arenal, Quanacaste, Costa Rica
On our Costa Rican tour’s drive around Lake Arenal, we stopped at this café for a break, and, while the rest of our group stayed inside, I went out and birded the parking lot. In about 20 minutes I spotted four different species of birds including two lifers, a Common Tody-flycatcher and a pair of Hoffman’s Woodpeckers. So much more fun than staying inside and shopping for souvenirs.
