The Dicksissel puts me in mind of somewhere other than Ontario (not impossible, of course). How about Jamaica Bay, New York?

Peter, Costa Rica has been negated (see posts 71 and 73 above).
Sorry!

Yes, Larry, I know ... but , this game, it's country and extra points for exact location. :t:
(Otherwise, I wouldn't have many points at all....)

Carlos - is that one of your lists?
It's quite a remarkable set of numbers - was there for three days, and the rain was mostly what I remember. I think it got sunny the day we were leaving.

Well, the rain and - the hummingbirds, hummingbirds, and more hummingbirds, just outside the reserve....

p.c.
