Getting ready for the rainforest

Having finally managed to identify the 9 or 10 varieties of birds which feed regularly around the cottage, we are now studying the 30 or so species of birds which we will be expected to identify when we get to Tortuguero. The Herons, Egrets and Kingfishers should be straightforward but the jacana and the purple gallinule may be a challenge.
We have 5 days in London after Christmas to get ready for our trip and do a bit of shopping before packing up and heading for Heathrow on Jan 5th. Not sure if there will be time for blog entries before then but will try to keep in touch from Costa Rica when we have internet access.
