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.
