Look who I took on my latest bat cave tour!! #parentsrock #hardcore #caving #adventure @tranquilobayThe Parque Metropolitano in Panama City sure didn’t disappoint! All for the newly arrived guests of honor, Marj and Mitch (aka Momma y Daddio)! We had this here keel billed toucan along with an awkward and adorable recently fledged young. Also enjoyed great looks at a troop of titis (squirrel monkeys) two days in a row, both sloths, a coati, several agoutis and a slaty tailed trogon at its nest! We aim to please, here in Panama! #toucan #ecotourism #panamabirds #panamabirding #panamwild #wildpanama #tropical #tropicalbird #keelbilledtoucan #panamacity #panamatourism #panamawildlife #birdyourworld #optoutside #birdlover #birdguide #guidelife #tropicallifeWhat’s out there?Tapiers, monkeys, wild cats, oh my..One of the many wonders to be seen along my snorkelsizing route.

Looks are deceiving! One of Bocas del Toro’s rainbow delegation of color morphs of the strawberry poison dart frog. This one on Isla Popa doesn’t have a lick of strawberry on him yet he is still the same Oophaga pumilio! #dartfrog #poisondartfrog #frogsofinstagram #tropicalfrog #bocasdeltoro #panama #bocas #tropical #nature #optoutside #explore #exploreyourworld #guidelifeThis lovely lad was climbing above the Changuinola canal along our birding excursion last month. The black stripe, termed a speculum, running down its back shows this is a male at sexual maturity. The short hair of the speculum is covered in an oily secretion which emits a musty scent. A hypothesis is that the larger and more prominent speculum might signal a male of better fitness that is therefore worthwhile to mate with. #slothlove #slothsofinstagram #slothlife #perezoso #slothsquad #slothlover #slothnation #slothing #bocasdeltoro #bocasdeltoropanama #bocas #bocasdeltoro🌴 #bocasdeltorotravel #panamawild #wildpanama #optputside #panamanature #ecotourism #panamatourism #panamawildlife #changuinolapanama #panamacanalThe golden hour here on the island was especially lovely this evening.. #islabastimentos #bocasdeltoropanama #panama #caneorchid #bambooorchid #orchid #orquidea #floresdeinstagram #optoutside #goldenhour #welllit #flowersofinstagram #rainforest #caribbeanisland #islandlife #guidelife #bocaslife #bocas #floral #panamawild #wildpanama #flowerpetals @visitbocasdeltoropanama @destinationbocasPhainopepla, phainopepla, phainopepla.. #joshuatreenationalpark #birdsofcalifornia #californiabirds #blackbird #bloodeye #sleek #crested #coolbird #birdyourworld #birdphotography #birdwatcher #birding #phainopepla #mohawk #joshuatree #joshuatreepark-
