Fhoto Friday - Costa Rica Rain Forest

Hi Myrl Jeffcoat - it's absolutely worth the visit!  The terrain is gorgeous, as is the water there!  The wildlife was as well!  You should definitely make the trip!

I thought of you, Sheila Anderson, as we were trapsing through the rain forest! The creatures  we saw were FAR tamer than your last vacation though!  ;-)

Thanks for stopping by, Noel Mayer.

Oddly enough, Endre Barath, Jr. - we were sailing with a couple who had 'raised' and tagged hundreds of Monarchs.  They didn't go on this tour with us but, the entire time I was there, I was looking for tags so I could tell her what I found!  I never saw a single one!  I couldn't wait to get back to the boat to show her the hundreds of pictures I got there.  

We don't see a lot of them in our area so, I'm always dazzled by them when I do see them!

We certainly did, Ed Silva - 10 days was just a bit much for me!  Next time, we won't attempt to cover so much territory!

Thank you, Michael Jacobs - it was a great trip and I did manage to get a few good photos too!

Hi Alexander- Slocum - oh, it was one of my favorite parts of the trip - I loved seeing the creatures in their natural habitat!  They also had some native snakes in aquariums - those did not interest me at ALL!    :-)

Kasey & John Boles and the team at Jon Gosche Real Estate, LLC - oh, I do too! We have a lot of tree frogs in our area during the springtime and they are incredibly vociferous!  LOL

Lee Potts - the new one (right beside the other two lock stations) is still under construction.  They expect completion sometime in 2018. 

Bob Crane - we sailed with a couple who were also enthusiasts and had even been involved in tagging hundreds of Monarchs.  She was absolutely thrilled to see these in their winter habitat too!  It was truly spectacular to see them all - I mean thousands of a variety of butterflies.  We never saw any of her tagged Monarchs though but, we certainly did a serious search for them!!
