Hola Ben,

We have been a couple of times to Isla Coiba, and have seen a few birds.

Some of the specialty birds we have seen are the endemic Coiba Spinetail and Brown-backed Dove.

Other noteworthy sightings include Scarlet macaws, Three-wattled Bellbirds, King Vultures, Bare-throated Tiger-Heron, among many other more common species.

Haven´t done much pelagic birding in the area but have seen Least Storm-Petrel and Brown-Noddy.

Hope this is helpful and don´t hesitate contacting me if you might need any further information.

Cheers,
Guido
