Black and green spotted poison dart frogs jumped around our feet near a small stream our first morning here. Surprisingly these smooth skinned amphibians are only about an inch in size. Can you see it on the top of the rock?
Again, if you have the sharp eyes of a hawk, you'll see the blue morpho butterfly with its wings shut. The underside of its wings is brown and you can see eye spots. When blue morphos fly around, their scales are an iridescent blue. They are an amazing flutter of color. The bottom photo is of the great tinamou.
On our night walk we saw cool nocturnal animals such as a flower eating kinkajou, a wooly opossum, bats, turnip tailed geckos, and the creepy hill of tarantulas!
