Montezuma Oropendola Photography
The Montezuma Oropendola is one of Costa Rica's most striking birds to photograph, with its pendulous woven nests and distinctive colouring offering plenty of scope for creative compositions against the rainforest canopy. NaturesLens builds time to work with this species into several of its Costa Rican itineraries, giving photographers repeated opportunities across varied habitats to capture it going about its business. It's a rewarding subject for those looking to broaden a portfolio of Central American wildlife images.
