Wildlife Sitings - Costa Rica


Exploration Day!  We took an amazing river safari on the Rio Frio in Los Chiles.  We started spotting wildlife as soon as we launched from the pier.  I was so hoping for more accessible wildlife to shoot, we have been taking nature walks and they were great but it tough to shoot in low light.  The jungles are dark and spotting wildlife without a nature guide is almost impossible, well, for me any way.  Back home I can spot antelope in Wyoming likes it nobody's business, but sloths in trees, not so much.  I don't know how Liza, our guide, could even distinguish that the dark ball of fur, that looked like a clump of moss high in the tree, was a sloth.  After some practice and knowing what to look for you can start to see birds and lizards, but I never spotted a sloth up in the trees on my own.

I did see actually see a sloth  that did not look like a giant ball of moss at Manuel Antonio park.
