KELSEYVILLE – The Redbud Audubon Society will host a program on “Birding in Costa Rica,” on Thursday, March 19, at the Kelseyville High School Library starting with refreshments at 7 p.m.

The public is cordially invited to attend what should be a fascinating program. Speakers include Bill and Karen MacDougall and Scott Klynstra with the presentation including photographs and stories of amazing birds and wildlife of Costa Rica.

Costa Rica is a highly popular destination for birders from around the world. With mountains, forests, jungles, coasts and coffee plantations, this Central American country offers diverse habitats and, therefore, an amazing range of birds with many classical tropical species being common, widespread and easy to see.

“There are birds everywhere, and birding visitors can expect to see as many as 250 species per trip with remarkably little effort, including beloved temperate zone migrants, such as the Cerulean Warbler,” Klynstra noted.

The MacDougalls and Klynstra who have made many trips to Costa Rica will provide stories, bird lists, photographs and information on where to see the Resplendent Quetzal at this entertaining presentation.

The Redbud Audubon Society presents education programs on the third Thursday of every month September through May, offers monthly field trips and co-produces the annual Hereon Festival and Wildflower Brunch. For more information go to www.redbudaudubonsociety.org.
