NICARAGUA

Managua, Nejapa, El Obraje, and Granada.
 
This was not a birding trip specifically but when you love birds every trip gives you the opportunity to look at the birds' though, I did not have any great blocks of time to do so.  I just snapped pics when I could usually in the morning as I woke up between 4:30-5:30 am, one time on a day trip, and one time during a one hour break.   I was not in the jungle area of Nicaragua or any of the recommended sites for birding but God sent some interesting birds our way.  Pretty sure I also saw a Snail Kite and a Hoffmann's Woodpecker that are not pictured (I missed the kite altogether but had a picture of the woodpecker taken by accident when shooting another bird but can't find it). See below for my bird pics (plus a few scenery and other creatures).  I had to edit the parrot pictures from the Volcano more drastically that usual as I was not prepared for them to come flying out of the volcano when they did. Still, our God is so wonderful it overwhelms me!  Most of the time I saw the bird because I heard it first.  On the Lake though I had others telling me where the birds were...mostly Abby...thank goodness.

 ALL PICTURES ON THIS SITE WERE TAKEN ONLY BY ABBY, CJ OR ME.  WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE PHOTOS ON THE BIRDING FIELD TRIP PAGE, ALL PICTURES HAVE ALL BEEN TAKEN IN OUR URBAN BACKYARD/TREES, OR IN THE SKY AND TREES ABOVE OUR HOUSE/NEIGHBORHOOD FROM 2018 TO THE PRESENT.  WE ARE USUALLY BIRDING EVERYDAY BUT ARE ALSO USUALLY BEHIND UPLOADING PICTURES.

 IF YOU WOULD LIKE INFORMATION ABOUT A SPECIFIC PICTURE PLEASE EMAIL US.   COGENTLY, IF WE HAVE ERRONEOUSLY MISLABELED A PICTURE PLEASE BRING IT TO OUR ATTENTION.
