Just one cell phone photo today. But I like it. It is not a double exposure, I hope that you can figure it out.

Luckily, our 2020 trip to Costa Rica finally happened in August 2021! We started in Tortuguero, on the east coast, and ended in La Fortuna, near the Arenal Volacano. It was a busy, fun and interesting trip – here are some photos that I hope you enjoy.
A scarlet macaw at a working farm that fed and cared for various wild animals. The macaws were able to freely fly and chose to ‘hang out’ at the farm.
There was a small group of capuchin monkeys at the farm as well. They too were free to move where ever they wanted .. and they stayed at the farm too.
I recently received a lovely and large bouquet of flowers! We have 3 cats, 2 of which love to munch on foreign green objects, soooo…..I very rarely have flowers, or plants, in the house.

One of several local hang outs. Brown pelicans are everywhere along our coast.
