We drive over a back road and a high pass to San José. The farmland is beautiful: nothing large-scale, lots of trees in the meadows, and puddles and pools in the meadows. Probably also less fertilized, although there are also large plots that according to our guide need a lot of poison. We see a tapir in the hilly area, quite special. I am also happy with a green ibis, a species that was unknown to me. Green in an ibis is black with a green tinge.

When we have lunch at the pass it rains a lot, and the promised feeders are quickly eaten empty by large chachalacas. Still, the weather produces a few new species. Without us getting soaked.

Today's destination in a hotel in San Jose. In the hotel garden we see unexpectedly nice birds: an owl pointed out by the gardener, and a nightjar spotted by our guide.

In the evening we have our last group meal. At 5:30 they have to go to the airport.
