The Guayabo Islands Biological Reserve is a Nature Reserve of Costa Rica, part of the Tempisque Conservation Area, which encompasses the four islands including Guayabo and los Pájaros in the Gulf of Nicoya. It is the location for many nesting sites for brown pelicans as well as various other species of birds.
Los Pájaros lies 500 meters off the coast of the gulf basin, and has a very hot and dry climate. The plant species that grow on the islet are deciduous and semi-deciduous, such as the wild guava and fig trees.
