I have to say, Central America is pretty great when it comes
to wilderness sightings. There
have been many times I’ve spotted animals like sloths and keel billed toucans
and simply just haven’t had a camera to capture the moment (I literally almost
walked into a sloth last year), but here are some that I did capture. I had a hard time narrowing down
the encounters I did get on a camera, so there are a lot here! I’ve already posted most of these
pictures either on this blog or on facebook, but I figured it would be cool to
have a bunch of them in one place!
So here’s to nature!!
 |
| A large moth! |
 |
| The national bird of Nicaragua |
 |
| Your guess is as good as mine (it's about 3 inches long) |
 |
| A cool leopard gecko in Costa Rica |
 |
| The orange dots are eggs! |
 |
| Look at those teeth! (Also in Costa Rica) |
 |
| Blue Morpho butterfly at the Ecolodge near my site |
 |
| A normal bird's nest...? |
 |
| Nope! A hummingbird's nest |
 |
| A cool caterpillar |
 |
| An awesome praying mantis that landed on my pants the other day |
 |
| The Howler Monkey that woke me up every morning for a month or so |
 |
| Another cool butterfly |
 |
| Toucan! |
 |
| Doesn't it just looks so warm and cuddly (also about 3-4 inches long and crawling around in front of my room) |
 |
| Not an animal, but still pretty cool!! |
 |
| I have a love/hate relationship with leaf cutter ants... |
 |
| He's actually really tiny! |
