Indoor Meeting – Birds of Costa Rica @ Goytre Village Hall
Oct 19 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

Keith Roylance and Dave Brassey will present a talk about the Birds of Costa Rica.

From the nondescript Clay-coloured Thrush (the National Bird) to the extremely photogenic Resplendent Quetzel, Costa Rica has much to offer the travelling birder. See just how four GOS members faired on their trip earlier this year
