Tent-making bats taking cover under a giant leaf, Corcovado National Park, Costa Rica.

A Scarlet macaw in flight – hard to imagine a more colorful bird!

This is sure a colorful snake.

Back in my University days at UC Irvine, our mascot was the Anteater. So, I was really hoping to see a real anteater in Costa Rica, and that wish came true on one of our last days there! This one is tearing into a termite mound. Corcovado National Park, Costa Rica.

A rain forest toad, Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica. This was the first time I have tried focus stacking with my Olympus and I was impressed. I need to use it much more often! I need to remember to compose a little loser since the algorithm needs to crop the image a toad as part of the stacking.

Hanging by just a tail! Spider monkey on the Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica.

A three-toed sloth. Osa Peninsula. What a face!

Spider monkey with a baby. This is the fourth monkey species we saw on our trip. A couple of days we saw and photographed all four species, including this day. The grand slam they call it!
