This is a list of birds seen at La Kukula Lodge in Playa Chiquita Puerto Viejo Costa Rica in April 2016. A short list due to lack of experience of the birdwatcher; an experienced birdwatcher will easily triple this list. April and May is always very easy to spot nests: at least 6 different nests have been seen in La Kukula Lodge garden belonging to Manakins, Wood Rail, tanagers and hummingbirds.
