Inca Doves
Ruddy Ground-Dove
Red-billed Pigeon
White-tipped Dove
White-winged Dove
Parrots and Parakeets, although pretty common were extremely hard to get decent pictures of, with the exception of the biggest and brightest, the Scarlet Macaws.
The Squirrel Cuckoo is just what it says, a Cuckoo that behaves like a Squirrel!
Groove-billed Anis where everywhere (ecept in the south-west, where they are replaced by the almost identical Smooth-billed Ani).
Here's a random selection of Hummingbirds, mostly taken in poor light, so the colours aren't always as per book :-(
Green Violet-ear
Magnificent Hummingbird
Purple-throated Mountain Gem (f)
Rufous-tailed Hummingbird
Scintillant Hummingbird
White-throated Mountain Gem
We also saw the beautiful Snowcap, but it was so dark that the pictures just about make ID shots, if you're feeling generous :-(
Finally, the gorgeous Turquoise-browed Motmot, just quietly sitting in a tree in the hotel grounds.
"Let loose the Kraken!"
Brings back memories :)

For advice about Birding, Identification,field guides, binoculars, scopes, tripods, etc - put 'Birding Tips' into the search box
I'd love to do some birding abroad, the idea of seeing birds I couldn't see in the UK excites me a lot! Wish I'd been more into birds a few months ago when I was in Connecticut! Oh well. Great pics Stuart, I'm going to have to go and look at the previous parts now :)
