I must have at least a little monkey business happening here.
Howler monkeys are the largest New World monkeys. They are known for their loud howls, which they use to mark their territory and alert others to stay away. They are very easy to find this time of year because there is not a lot of foliage and they give away their location with their howling.
At home in the forest, they hardly ever leave the treetops. They don’t move very far each day, feeding leisurely at the very top of the forest canopy. Howlers mainly eat leaves, as well as fruits, nuts, and flowers. Howler monkeys get almost all the water they need from the food they eat. One of the few times they can be spotted on the ground, however, is during very dry spells when they need to find extra water.

Spectacled Owl. Búho de Antejojos. Found in dry forest ( slightly humid), cloud forest edge and in semi open areas; moves to lower level canopy to roost in dense vegetation. Delivers a muffled but resonating series of deep notes wuh-wuh-wuh-woo-woo-woo.
LISTEN! This is one of the craziest sounding birds around the Montezuma Oropendola. This was absolutely wild, there was at least 100 birds it felt like being in a herd of animals.
The montezumas oropendola breeds in colonies on the forest edge and adjacent open areas. Displaying male emits a bizarre, escalating metallic chortle. Often accompanied by a crackling noise.

Warning ⚠️ GIANT snake. This was wild. I woke up to the sounds of monkeys going nuts. It was still a little dark but there’s no sleeping through 30 howler monkeys howling their loudest. By the time I was walking down the the trail the urraka’s (white throated magpies) were on the case. Cawing at something. And then this fine specimen slithered on her way. Most likely female because of her size.

I walked blissfully through the temple of nature’s beauty
Intoxicated by the sights, sounds and smells
Only the beauty around kept me grounded or was it sweeping me away?
Deep breaths filled with orchid smells
Dancing light in the jade temple above
Gentle clear blue waves crash on the sand
Birds flit and sing and call
So natural in this temple of nature’s beauty
I wish I could let nature take me over
