Today we all woke up early and got over to the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve by 7:30am. This is what we had been dying to do since we arrived last night. It was a morning and early afternoon of exploration and breathtaking surroundings. My descriptions won’t do any justice here, so I will simply let the pictures tell the story. I pulled some out that I thought everyone would enjoy.
Monteverde - Looking out of the hotel room at El Establo at around 5:15am. |
Not everyday you see a puma crossing sign. |
See if you can find the Stick Bug. |
Centipede of some kind on the we ran across will in Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve. |
This guy had to click every bit of 50 meters tall. |
I thought this was an abnormal amount of fungi on the side of a tree. |
These are some mean thorns coming off the side of this tree. Pretty sharp. I touched them. |
A bat sheltering the day away in a curled palm. I looked in it hoping to see a frog. Never thought I would see a bat taking shelter. |
Not sure of the flower, but this was only one in bush of many. |
An incredible looking orchid. |
A view on the continental divide. This was facing the Atlantic side. I wish the sky would have been clear. |
My princess taking a glare across the valley of clouds. We had maybe 50-70 feet visibility. |
