Wildlife > KBev  > Animals > Monte Verde Cloud Reserve, Costa Rica (Aug 07)
The Monte Verde Could Forest Reserve was our first stop in Costa Rica. We spent a day and a half touring the area. Here are some of my favorite photos. It rains a lot in the cloud forest, depite the weather, this was one of my favorite stops during the trip. I put it in "Animals" but it includes a lot of bugs, too!

KBev > Gaudy Leaf Frog - On display, shot in the dark with a flashlight
KBev > On one of the trails, I nearly walked into this sign (it was at eye level, but I wasn't paying attention).  To make it easier to understand, look at the branch above the sign.  This composite photo shows the "Leafcutter Ants" in more detail.
KBev > The reason you hire a guide to walk you through the reserve is because of this:  From the outside, this looks like a dying leaf in the sun (with the glimmer on it) [see next photo]
KBev > On of these long nosed bats must have chewed the stem  to create a shelter.  From underneath, you can count 4-5 bats sleeping during the day.
KBev > A Chestnut Mandibled Toucan
KBev > The Famous Blue Morpho of Costa Rica
KBev > The appropriately named "Owl Butterfly"
KBev > Can you guess the other name of the "Grete oto'?  Some call it  the "Glass-wing butterfly"
KBev > Parides Butterfly (at our lodge)
