    More Tortuguero wildlife

    February 3, 2017 in Costa Rica ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C

    A few more photos of the Tortuguero wildlife. This really is an amazing place to spot wildlife. We love that Solana is interested in the wildlife too - most of the time (although I will confess that on one boat trip she requested to play C-Beebies on Mummy's phone instead - I think maybe she is getting a bit wildlifed-out at times...). You can see from the pictures what attracts people to Tortuguero but it has some down sides too - it takes a while to get to, trips here can be expensive and it is bloody wet! We got off lightly as far as the rain was concerned but both us and all of our things felt covered in a layer of permanent dampness whilst we were there. How anyone ever gets their washing dry here is beyond us! Wildlife in these pictures includes a parrot (difficult to identify which type, as they're nearly all green!), a spider, green kingfisher, a spider monkey, a trogon bird and a collared aracari (like a toucan).Read more
