I found this fallen epiphyte (a plant that grows on trees), a bromeliad of the sun-family Tillandsia, on their property today during a tour and Julie and Robert graciously let me take it home to Bastimentos! It immediately makes me think of @killerflower, either you’ll get inspiration from it or perhaps it was inspired by you! 😘Yellow-throated toucan posing nicely at the chocolate farm..@tranquilobay #toucans #tropical #caribbean #bocasdeltoro #bocas #wildpanama #panamabirds #birdsofpanama #tropicalbirds #toucansofinstagram #birdyourworld #tropicalbirdingLove to my parents who have supported me through all the challenges and successes through the last 35 years.
