Discover the enchanting wildlife of Costa Rica in this nature talk for adults, presented by Joys of Nature!

 

For such a tiny country, Costa Rica has amazing biodiversity. Bird life in the rainforest varies widely from colorful hummingbirds, honeycreepers, and red-capped manakins to large birds like great curassow and scarlet macaws. Curious troops of capuchin monkeys can be found exploring the trees as they look for food. Night brings a chance to see tiny creatures, like poison dart frogs and red eyed tree frogs, well hidden among the foliage. Join us as we explore the wildlife of Costa Rica’s lowland rainforests.
