So it’s official, the Common #Potoo of the Magical Mangrove Tunnel is an official resident with THREE separate encounters on my kayak/snorkel tour.

This frog-mouthed, nocturnal #bird capture large insects on the wing with its wide maw.

The Spotted Sandpipers are back!!
They're finishing up the nesting season up north and the chicks have grown their flight feathers in and, with their parents, have flown thousands of miles to show up here in Bocas del Toro to spend the winter with us.

Sloths are abundant across the archipelago and not every tourist to the islands is aware of that. If you’re visiting the archipelago, it would be an utter travesty if you left without seeing a single sloth, so easily overlooked if you don’t know what you’re looking at or looking for!

Here is one of the benefits of living in the tropics..the hummingbirds! Gems of the forest and garden, I feel so thankful to be surrounded by such beauties like this one, our White-necked Jacobin.

Join me on a birdwatching tour here in Bocas del Toro, our richly biodiverse archipelago! 🪶 #birds

The keel-billed toucan sounds like a distant frog or insect, a chirruping beat to its own drum. Once you know it's call you'll realize they're fairly common! The sound is like a frog and a cricket had a baby. When they really get going, the call is perfectly in tempo, kru-duk, kru-duk, kru-duk! 🪶

Important: NEVER put your feet down when you’re snorkeling! Even if it looks like just a sand /silt floor or seagrass, there’s absolutely life down there trying to grow, so let’s ALWAYS set a good example & let guests to Bocas know to be ALWAYS aware of our feet & never touch down on or near a reef.

How many species do you see here? The Caribbean waters of Bocas Del Toro are majorly made up of invertebrate filter feeders and photosynthesizing plants & algas. By simply floating over the reef, in one single spot, the incredible biodiversity you’ll encounter is phenomenal!

A rainbow array of birds, both tropical residents and winter migratory species rely on this ample food source, our fruiting Miconia species.

Enjoy this colorful collection of birds that gather on these fruiting bushes and trees.
