Day 5 - Manuel Antonio National Park

After rounding up our tour group and a short ride from the Mariposa hotel, we finally made it to Manuel Antonio National Park. Our tour guide, Roy Orozco, is on the of the best tour guides here in Costa Rica. We are looking forward to this activity. 

Just outside the national park are souvenir shops. 







John picked up a mango on the road.

There are several mango trees here.

Here's the rest of the group. The tour guides here have powerful telescope that they use to show animals from far away. Without the tour guides, we will miss the animals during this walk. 


The tour guide also takes pictures from his telescope.



Baby Hawk
From above the tree, our tour guide spotted a baby hawk. 

Kitty's reaction to seeing the baby hawk is priceless. So cute! Worth the price of admission.

During our walk, we spotted a monkey.






Squirrel Money (I think)



Humming Bird

The nectar of this flower is what the humming birds like.
