    northern Costa Rica - audio recordings

    seabird from south africa

    Hello all, While on the shore (watching Southern Right Whales!) at Hermanus, South Africa, I spotted the following bird flying through the bay.

    Mkuze and Hluhluwe

    Hluhluwe After some research and looking at the plans, I hope to visit Hluhluwe Reserve while in South Africa. I've read that this place has self-drive tours through the park, has anyone done these and recommend them? If I was interested in an open game drive, how do I organize/schedule this?

    This December, I will be visiting the Cancun area. I will have one day to go birding, and I was wondering if there are any good birding spots (lowland forests spots especially) within 30min to 1 hour away from Cancun.

    bird song from El Zota, Costa Rica

    Hmm... I always thought Western Slaty-Antshrikes were lower pitched than this. Also, the bird didn't have the rising note at the end that the Slaty-Antshrikes often have.

This call can be heard several times in the background of the...

    Any one who uses the Zoom H4 recorder, I would greatly appreciate your help. I am considering buying an 8GB card for the H4 (friends say they work fine despite what the official specs say). All of the 8GB cards I see on the internet are SDHC. Will SDHC work in the H4? or only regular SD? in...
