A major reason to visit Costa Rica is for its birdlife. Because the Central American isthmus joins two continents, it has a wide variety of endemic species as well as seasonal migrants.

Costa Rica's Gulf of Nicoya is sprinkled with an array of glistening, gem-like islands. Rescued from development, the islands of Guayabo and the two Negritos were protected in 1973 and Los Pajaros followed in 1976. Taken together, they comprise 363 acres (147 ha), all covered with thorny huiscoyol palms and huge populations of birds.

Set 13 km (eight miles) NW of Puntarenas, nine-acre (3. 8-ha) Pajaros (this picture) shelters a variety of nesting seabird species including the easily-terrorized pelican.
