Mexican Woodnymph, Mexico
Our day at Cerro de San Juan was relatively quiet this year, though we did find the difficult Mexican Woodnymph, and found the other species elsewhere (Pete Morris)
Spotted Wren, Mexico
And we found a few other new endemics such as this Spotted Wren (Pete Morris)
Citreoline Trogon, Mexico
As usual, our visit to San Blas was superb. When we could tear ourselves away from the cuisine, we found some brilliant birds, such as this Citreoline Trogon (Pete Morris)
Collared Forest-Falcon, Mexico
Once again, the spectacular and impressive Collared Forest-Falcon showed very well indeed (Pete Morris)
Bare-throated Tiger-Heron, Mexico
We were very fortunate to find two different obliging adult Bare-throated Tiger-Herons, both of which showed brilliantly (Pete Morris)
White-throated Flycatcher, Mexico
Not as spectacular by any means, the White-throated Flycatcher, one of (too?) many species of Empidonax seen on the tour, is at least uncommon and localized (Pete Morris)
Heermann's Gull, Mexico
Plenty of excellent Heermann's Gulls showed well on the beaches (Pete Morris)
Franklin's Gull, Mexico
And we found a few rosy-flushed migrant Franklin's Gulls (pictured here with a Laughing Gull) that were appreciated by all (Pete Morris)
Green Heron, Mexico
And other more common species included this fishing Green Heron (Pete Morris)
Northern Potoo, Mexico
On one afternoon/evening we took a boat trip from San Blas which was superb. Rufous-necked Wood-Rail showed well, and later, we saw many amazing Northern Potoos (Pete Morris)
