This is what we saw on OUR FIRST DAY in Costa Rica today!

This was our first full day in the rain forest of Costa Rica and my guides and I took my guests out for a day of photography, and it turned out to be a great one! We saw all four species of monkeys and so much more. Check out what we captured just today!

Our morning started with a siting of a Roadside hawk here on the resort property. I took all of these photos with the Canon R1 camera with the Canon RF 100-500mm lens.

After a short drive we came across some adult Howler monkeys. Myself and many of my guests caught this monkey yawning high up in a tree. He looks fierce, but I think he was just tired.

For the first time in 15 trips down here, we spotted and got great shots of a Slaty-tailed trogon. 

During the late morning we spotted a group of Spider monkeys with their babies.

The babies are the cutest!

Later we caught another group of Spider monkeys grabbing some nearby fruit for a snack.

It is not often that we see Anteaters, but we saw one today, and this one was not afraid of us at all.

We had ample chances to photograph this Anteater as it walked around, climbed trees...

...and foraged for some food. 

When we got back to the resort this afternoon, we were ready to pack it in for the day when one of the guides spotted this Two-toed sloth right by our rooms. I showed everyone how we could use the nearby leaves as a frame for the sloth. What a way to end a great day!

And tomorrow we are doing macro photography with the Red-eyed tree frogs and more. So much fun!
