The Bird Banter Podcast Episode #65 with Patrick O’Donnell


Patrick O’Donnell started birding as a 7-year old in Niagra Falls, NY. From there he has birded many places in the U.S. and for the last few years has lived in San Jose, Costa Rica where he guides day birding trips, is a freelance writer and is active in the Birding Club of Costa Rica.
Patrick has published an eBook available in many formats called How to Find and Identify Birds in Costa Rica. I have bought the Kindle version and it seems to be all that is implied in the title and more. I look forward to reading it soon.
We talk about several of Patrick’s favorite places to bird near San Jose including:

Parque Nacional Braulio Carillo.

In addition we talk about some of the more well known birding hotspots and ecolodges:

Rancho Naturalista

I’ll try to fill in other location links soon. Please come back.

Here is a National Smithsonian Article on Macaws and Clay Licks.

Until next time. Good birding. Good day.
