Walk in the Jungle

December 31, 2022, in Costa Rica

Last night we had a dramatic sunset. I had to include this just for fun!

Being a holiday the beaches near where the ship docked were crowded with families.

After a 2 hour bus ride we had a walk through the jungle. Fortunately, we wore our hiking boots. The path was rocky, muddy, and very hilly. But it was full of interest. Many of my photos just didn’t focus very well. Most did. So, what did we see while walking through the jungle?

Birds

Flowers

Including orchids. Most weren’t in bloom, but some were.

We were told this is a spider orchid.

Supposedly there are many animals in the jungle but we saw very few.

A lizard with good camouflage. We saw some butterflies. My photos were terrible. The background on the photos show dense foulage. Looking up showed the “umbrella” over the jungle. The canopy!
