Our intern Pauline Pearse took some photos of the latest round of
bird monitoring in Laguna de Apoyo Nature Reserve. We are now in our fifth year of MARENA-sponsored research on birds in this protected area. Here we share a few of them with you, to give you an idea of the esthetic value of the forest of this protected area. We hope you enjoy them.
