The third report on our 2008 Costa Rica hummingbird banding expedition is now posted. It includes a summary of all our Ruby-throated Hummingbird work to date in Guanacaste Province, plus a report on our efforts to find other hummer havens away from the aloe fields.

If you're interested in hummingbird flowers you may especially enjoy our photographic gallery of the "Top Ten" nectar plants visited by ruby-throats on our study site.

Happy (Tropical) Nature Watching!
