Post Your Best Nature Shots!

Very nice Denise! I hope you took a screen-shot already It's not published very large, but it does link directly to the photo on Flickr which is very nice.
The photo is very peacefully with great colors. I also like the moving boat. Great shot

The first three were from a river boat tour of the Cano Negro Wildlife Refuge. A troop came very close to the river. The last was from Manuel Antonio NP.

Thanks for viewing....Brant

Brant;

Great shots of the howler monkees. Love the one of the mother and her baby, really great to get a shot like that.

The Cano Negro area is great isn't it? We went there a couple years ago. It's great that you can see alot of wildlife in a small area. It's not like that in most other areas. We found that in the amazon basin, there are still alot of animals, but they have alot more space to hide...so it's sometimes harder to find the same diversity of wildlife as in smaller areas like Cano Negro.

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood.
This guy was in my backyard this weekend.

Thanks Pat. It was a great trip. I'd recommend Costa Rica to anyone...as long as they can tolerate the roads....

Stephen. Cano Negro was great. I wish I had more time. I went there expecting to see a ton of birds, but only saw a few (but a lot of other wildlife). I don't think our boat tour made it very far into the refuge and I have a feeling there is a lot more to see. Next time I will go with one of the more specialized tours that are out longer. I enjoyed all of the parks I went to as we had good luck in Carara and Manuel Antonio National parks as well. That is interesting about the Amazon, but makes sense. The farmland around each of Costa Rica's parks/refuges likely does consolidate the wildlife.

Still processing photos .

Hi Brant, fantastic shots of those howler monkeys, sounds like a a great trip. You probably didn'y know where to point your camera next. Lovely detail and exposure on those shots.

Great stuff on this thread too. Here is a little addition from me.
Weather was kind of gray but I still got some okay shots of deer and a first for me: a fox!
The first one is very heavily processed as it was very dark and I saw them when I was walking to the field but it makes for an interesting photo nevertheless.

Thanks for viewing and keep up the good work everyone!
