Our third week of banding Ruby-throated Hummingbirds in Costa Rica
was our most productive to date--plus we got some dynamite views of
flora and flora we had not seen or photographed before. To view these
images and read about the impressive work of the Gamma Niners, please
visit our 12-21 February installment of "This Week at Hilton Pond" at

Info about participating in next year's Operation RubyThroat
hummingbird expeditions to Costa Rica is now posted; we're still
finalizing plans for two other Winter 2010 trips--one each to
Guatemala and Belize.
Happy (Tropical) Nature Watching!
