Some furry things

We’ve been popping some pics here and there on FB but got slack on the blog. So here’s a collection of furry friends from our many walks and temporary homes in all the places we’ve been so far. Drake Bay and Corcovado are expected to warrant some independent posting and we’ve arrived with a sopping beach landing to a little piece of paradise. Forced to sip Long Island iced teas while we gaze at the ocean through a jungle, because the wifi is only available at the bar 😁🍹.

 

Capuchin Monkey, Manuel Antonio NP. Margaret says they always look sad to be a capuchin monkey and it’s true.
But they are the terrorists of monkeys here, aggressive and clever, out to take advantage of you if they can

Playful raccoons, Cahuita NP

  

 One extra special howler monkey with his girlfriend. He’s mutated through inbreeding and apparently one of only 3 orange monkeys in the world. Caño Negro Wildlife Refuge 

    

 Bats asleep for the day, Manuel Antonio NP 

 

 The only spider monkey we’ve seen so far, orphaned and being raised for release at the Jaguar Centre, Punta Cocles.
We are hoping to see some in the wild here in Drake Bay or in Corcovado NP.
