Thank you, amazing video
Very impressive, and great choice of music!
Awesome👏✊👍
Plain ol habitat destruction, is the main ecological problem for species, not climate change.
Wonderful work!
nice
Just got here from your news letter.. Fascinating content Tyler!
No entiendo como este mae no se hace viral con este hermoso contenido ❤🇨🇷 pura vida mae
Can’t wait to visit this trail! 🙌🏾
Beautiful place to be. Thanks for sharing all this information. Do you live in Costa Rica or visiting?
Yes I live in Costa Rica. I have been here for twelve years.
@@tylrwnzl great place to live. I'm in Florida but Costa Rica would be my number 1 international birding destination. 👍
Very nice! Thank you for sharing - would be nice to have a weekend getaway there.
Thanks for sharing how wild coul be our country and the beautiful greens of our forest, keep going exploring Tyler
what is the average cost for a guide in costa rica if you arrange something on the spot?
That will depend a lot on where you are, if you're arranging a private guide or as part of a group, how long the tour is, what type of guide you're looking for in terms of somebody that's more general or if they have a special focus on something like birds photography or reptiles. And it will even vary depending on what part of the country you are in Crypt cost-of-living being higher in some areas that are more touristy
This video is very accurate, good job Tyler
Great footage
Of all of my times in the Highlands and Monteverde etc I am still yet to see a Quetzal 🤦♀
This is so relaxing that I listened to the whole thing in the background without even realizing it while I was working
Very nice, pura vida!
The knowledge you have about the Biodiversity of species is admirable... congratulations...
Thanks for pointing out some great parks.
This was so helpful thank you
Pura vida!
Excelente video Tyler..gracias, saludos.

Thank you for coming to our town! Hope you enjoyed the travel
It was a great trip overall. Are you from San Vito, Puerto Jimenez or San Gerardo?
@@tylrwnzl I'm from San Vito
love your videos
costa rica is my favorite country to visit. i just love the nature so much. thank you for introducing some new locations for me to travel to :D hadnt even heard of a couple of these places
@@simonppp3277 fantastic! They're pretty much all off-the-beaten tourist track places.
So informative! Absolutely brilliant! Thank you for making such a great video...
Thank you Tyler! Honored to had a share.
We are here for 3 days are you about?
Unfortunately I am busy these days.
@@tylrwnzl can you recommend a guide or company please?
@@martialartaben If you're going to Bogarin you can just use the guides they have there on site. They know the property very well.
@@tylrwnzl thanks. Went today. What's the deal with that place. Did they take sloths from the wild and place them there?
Excellent video!
We spend lots of time at the Bogarin Trail as it is one of our favorite places to visit in Costa Rica. Your information is dead on. Excellent video!
Pura vida maravilloso Greetings
🤗
Hello,thanks for showing your adventures and the info.Certainly the country to be for bird spotting with so many species.Greetings from the Netherlands and just subscribed.
A month ago I attached around 40 different species of epiphytes for hummingbirds (ie Columnea) to the trees at Paraiso Volcano Lodge at the base of Miravalles volcano. Hopefully you will be able to visit this fledgling botanical garden for hummingbirds.
Any succes?
@@michaellaren1 i'm not sure. i live in california.
we will be visiting in 16 days, are you a guide?
I love how a bird I see everyday like the Lesser Black Backed Gull is exciting to people on the other side of the planet
Amazing Tyler! Thank you
Great birding. I usually bird all day in Global Big days but unfortunately not at this time. Really cool to see all kinds of tropical birds there. Hurricane can bring in some new birds. I did some birding in hurricane IAN here in Florida. Excellent video 👍
It was actually my first time really getting out on a Big Day. I work Saturdays normally so I am usually limited to birding in my yard on Big Days.
@@tylrwnzl It's great to bird all day long. I have my Global Big Big Day birding video from last year here in Florida. If you're interested check it out. Thanks 👍
Amazing work Tyler!
Hola muchísimas gracias por estos vídeos bonitos de nuestro país🇨🇷 un fuerte abrazo 🤗
Hello Tyler,Costa Rica is the place to be for birders. I go for the Keel-billed Toucan because of the contrast black-yellow.Greetings from the Netherlands and just subscribed.Lots of film pleasure!!!
Great! Hi. :)
Nice and beautiful video. Thanks for sharing.
¡Que relajante! How relaxing!
Hopefully we can visit Arenal someday and take your tour!!!
Would be a pleasure!
What happen with those birds that are found accidentally? They return back where they belong ?
Most cases where a bird migrates the wrong way they die, but there are exceptions. Especially with migratory birds going slightly farther than normal instead of the wrong way or birds pushed off course by a storm they're more likely to survive. But in general the life expectancy among birds is not very high.
With the year some of those accidents now are common birds to be spotted
