We had a choice of hiking through the rain forest for 2 hours or sitting on this beautiful beach on the Pacific. Guess which one we chose.
On the hike to the beach, there was a three-toed sloth that was actually moving around in a tree fairly close to the ground. At least it was closer than any of the others we've seen.
Our guide kept warning us to guard our belongings at the beach. We thought maybe we were in a bad part of town. But the thieves turned out to be the white-faced (capuchin) monkeys. Cute little guys, but they are fast, and they like to run in, pick up people's bags and run off with them.
A birding treat on this outing was sighting several Fiery-billed Aracaris near their nest in a tree.
Beautiful birds!
This afternoon we are relaxing in our rooms...not lazy, but it has been raining and thundering for 3 hours now. Nap time!
