Maine! Dull day Eagle

Costa Rica! Not cooperative

Squirrel Cuckoo: Tico Rainforest B&B, Sarapiqui, Costa Rica, December 2024 — We (Victor and I) found this Squirrel Cuckoo among the palms in a neighbor’s yard just down the road from Tico Rainforest B&B…not a cooperative bird at all…it stayed mainly hidden in the palm fonds in somewhat harsh direct sun and consequently deep shadow. This as the best I was able to do. They are, I think, called Squirrel Cuckoos because they look like Squirrels as they run along the branches of trees. There may be a more scientific reason, but if so, I am not aware of it. 🙂 Sony a6700 with Tamron 50-400 Di iii at 600mm equivalent. Program mode with my bird and wildlife modifications.
