Please join the San Vito Bird Club this Sunday, May 12th, for a Bird Walk down in Tres Rios. Approximately twelve Crested Oropendola nests are to be found in a tall Poro tree. These nests are actively attended by both Ma and Pa Oropendola. What’s going on inside the nests? Eggs…chicks…what? Let’s see if we can find out.

Meet me, Greg Homer, at the Motola Bakery between 6:30 and 7:00 am (enjoy a coffee and a doughnut if you wish). At 7:01 we’ll drive down to the site. Bring a folding chair if you’d like but I’ll have a few extra. This is a wonderful birding site and we will also be walking along the Tres Rios road, watching and listening for other bird species.

Perhaps, following the walk we should return to the Motola Bakery for what is…according to San Vito Bird Club founder Alison Olivieri…the BEST GALLO PINTO in Coto Brus!

Hope to see you there. As always, binoculars available as needed.
