This all green parrot is from the Atlantic side. Scroll down to the Pacific parrot which is multi colored.

In Central America, the land is sometimes so fertile and moist that sticks planted in the ground will sprout and put down roots. So they are used for "living fences" as the photo shows.

We went for a walk with a family and learned that the abundant coconuts are free snacks for everyone. Dad carries a machutti and lops the end off for friends and family. Good for all ages.

I just read of storms in California and six feet of new snow in the Sierra! I am in Costa Rica!

If you don't like the pool, one can go to the nearby beach.

I am a bird lover and took both of these photos of indigenous species.

Just another tranquil river in Costa Rica? Along the hiway to the beach we stopped towatch the butterflies and parrots. Nothing unusual.

You don't need to go to San Franciso Zoo to be exposed to wild animals who will eat you!

Somedays you are the cow and somedays you are the alligator.
