Costa Rica's Pacific Coast Habitats have too many birds to fit into one guide, so we made two, one for each primary type of habitat.

One guide includes the birds you'll see in the Rain Forest, such as the Scarlet Macaw. The other guide includes the birds you'll see on the Nicoya Peninsula and in the Guanacaste Dry Forest.
