Wild Three-toed Sloth in a Tree
Sarapiqui, Costa Rica
It's rare that a sloth is SO visible, or this low to the ground. 5 minutes later I went back and couldn't find it at all! Much more common experience.

Wild Baird's Tapir

Tapirs are shy, mostly nocturnal, and spend their time in dense forests looking for fruit and leaves. Because they're so quiet and reclusive, seeing one in the wild is rare, even for locals. #tapir #photography #wildlifephotography #wildlife #bairdstapir #lucky

Mid December I hope to head back to HQ to work with little ones like these, hopefully getting them ready for a successful life in the wild. Rescue is tough, I have a huge amount of respect for the people who make it a career, it's a real labor of love. #photography #sloths #costarica

Amazon Parrot 'Helping'
Costa Rica doesn't allow wildlife as pets, so every rescue has a cage of confiscated Amazon parrots that wolf whistle, speak + shriek a LOT! I like them though they're a handful. Many bite, they'll poop on you, escape but they sure are pretty #birds #amazons #rescue #wildlife
