The birds are sure colorful in Costa Rica.

As several of you have speculated, our recent travel to Costa Rica was in anticipation of a new photo tour. I am really excited about this one! I could go on and on here, but all the details can be found at the link. Of course, I’m happy to answer any questions. Pura Vida! Costa Rica Photo Tour.

I was excited to see a such a rare and endangered animal as a baird’s tapir! We actually saw three. In addition to this one, we saw a mom with a baby. Corcovado National Park, Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica.

A tender moment between a baby mantled howler monkey and mom. Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica.

A red-capped manakin. This colorful little bird does a mating dance that looks just like Michael Jackson’s famous dance where he slides backwards. It is so funny, and mesmerizing to watch in person!

A yellow-throated toucan, Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica. Seems like every bird in Costa Rica is colorful!

A crested owl, Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica.

Happy New Year everyone! I tried to be a night owl last night but tapped out before midnight. 🙂 We did get a nice visit from our striped skunk.
