Costa Rican Birds

Gracias

All I know is something like a bird within her sang,

All I know she sang a little while and then flew on,

Tell me all that you know, I'll show you snow and rain.

Over 830 bird species are found in Costa Rica...more than all of North America.

It is about the size of West Virginia with 4.3 million people.

A central range separates eastern and western coastal plains.

Climate is mild in the highlands and tropical to subtropical at the coasts.
