The Trip
Not a bad way to wake up and start the day
The road to Corcovado Nat'l Park. Luckily it was dry season or these little river crossings would have required a better truck
Hiking around the hotel before we head into the park for 3 days/2 nights
Hiking into the park. 12 miles in 900 degrees and enough humidity that we would have been dryer if we swam.
1/3 of the hike was black sand beach in the sun
1/3 at the high tide line
the rest was in the jungle
Tapir that stuck his tounge out at me
Yellow CaraCara
The Ranger Station @ Sirena where we camped for 2 nights
Camouflage, They have it
Leafcutter Ants. Very impressive little critters.
Black Vultures. All over the place
Wild Turkey (No, not that kind)
Blue Grey Taninger
Tiger Heron
Eyelash Pit Viper. Very impressive camouflage. Also pretty lethal.
The rivers we crossed in low tide on the way to the park had these during high tide.
King Fisher

There were so many of these while hiking that it sounded like rain as they all ran for cover
