    I'm going to try it out over the next few week in Costa Rica. To be honest though....so far, I like the merch better than the actual app (nice baseball caps & t-shirts).

    Another small set of Costa Rican birds for ID check

    Thank you for this. Funny, was discussing these 2 pics with a birding guy I know in CR and he wasn't sure...but was edging towards Brown-crested (owing to tail colour).......but he was also thinking the pics might be of 2 different species.

    And the nice thing is that I've actually picked a new species in all of this! (I already had C.thalassinus and Black-bellied Hummingbird)

    Very clear. Thank you for explaining so comprehensively. And of course no problem. (No doubt they'll all be lumped back together at some point anyway ;) ). Cheers!

    What you actually provided was a bird species ID that wasn't included in the field guide. I then checked the internet and as highlighted by you and another, this indicated a split. But the split species with the same latin name as Green Violetear (Colibri thalassinus) is not Lesser Violetear...

    Wikipedia shows them as different species?

    Thank you. Lesser Violetear not listed in my CR field guide for some reason - but that would make much sense geographically. Flycatcher looks a good shout too. (y)
