This
is a stereophonic journey
through a cloud forest day in Costa Rica's Monteverde Cloud Forest
Preserve. Step onto the trails in the pre-dawn to a chorus of crickets,
Tink Frogs, and Mottled Owl. Experience the amazing roars of a troop of
howler monkeys as they announce the day from the canopy. Have a seat at
the perfect spot on a trail for the beginning of the dawn chorus.
Hear
Resplendent Quetzal, Emerald Toucanets, and the yodeling of
Prong-billed Barbets. Absorb the ethereal calls of Black-faced
Solitaire and Slaty-backed Nightingale-Thrush, the mellifluous
whistling of Black-thighed Grosbeak and raucous duets of Black-breasted
Wood-Quail. Walk to the edge of the windswept continental divide where
the calls of Three-wattled Bellbird, and Gray-breasted Wood-Wren
reverberate across the valley below.
Feel Arenal Volcano shake
from the distance, and return through an evening chorus at sunset, as
frogs, nightbirds and kinkajous take the stage. The production runs for
33 minutes of uninterrupted stereo, and then is repeated with the
addition of a narrative which describes the sounds through the trip

This
compact disc contains 184 of the most often heard Costa Rican birds
(nearly a third of the country's resident species). The sounds are
numbered and sequenced to follow the order in which they appear in the
plates in A Guide to the Birds of Costa Rica (Stiles, Skutch, and
Gardner 1989).
Recordings are presented within eight easy-to-use categories. In
addition to covering the most characteristic bird songs of the major
birding destinations, this sampler includes a selection of recordings
for the seasoned visitor: Resplendent Quetzal, Black-cheeked
Ant-Tanager, Black-crowned Antpitta, Yellow-eared Toucanet, Lesser
Ground-Cuckoo, Zeledonia, Silvery-fronted Tapaculo, Silvery-throated
Jay, Black-faced Solitaire, Collared, Slaty-backed and Barred
Forest-Falcons, 5 tinamou species, 15 wrens, and 11 nightbirds
including the Andean Pygmy-Owl.
