Ecovida Hawkwatch is a prime raptor and migratory-bird observatory in Sarapiquí—great for photographing hawks, kites and other raptors riding thermal corridors against open sky and river valleys. Best light is early morning and late afternoon; peak migration is typically Sept–Dec. Site is accessible by car (small parking), trails and observation points; expect basic entrance fee and local guides who aid spotting. Bring rain protection—tropical showers common. Weekdays are quieter; respect guides
