Greene, H. June 21 Santa Rosa National Park, Guanacaste Prov., Costa Rica Arrived here in rented car x/100 hr w/ Wendy Roberts, having arrived in Costa Rica on the 19th and spent last night at the Hotel Boyeros in Liberia. We walked around a nature trail and a side branch twice by 1130hr, in an area centered on Quedrada Duende, near the memorial hacienda "La Casona" - same area Beth Baker and I visited during the dry season x/981. Now it is lush, green, and humid. In x 3/4 km of walking we saw a Buteo magnirostris (perched on limb x 3-4 m high at trailside), an oriole (in green leaf near ground), and several juvenile and adult Ctenosaura similis. Everywhere there are brown and red leaves on the ground, even now in the wet season, so it is easy to see how Apleistodon bilineatus would be very cryptic on this background. On the road driving back to Liberia we saw a beautiful hawk, Parabuteo unicinctus, perched on a phone pole. Driving toward the coast after a late lunch at El Bramadero, we watched a big thunderstorm to the northwest and met it full force as we pulled into Cabinas Playa Desroza. Wendy went in to see about lodging and found various guests and workers seated on the restaurant patio in x 20-30 cm of water! We took a noon, then went to nearby Playa del Coces for a pizza dinner. On the road returning we saw Gastrophryne, Bufo
