A Stroll Through The Property of Tortuga Lodge

There was plenty to photograph within the beautiful Tortuga property.

This is one of my favourite shots.

The bird above (and below) is a Montezuma Oropendola.

They were loud and continually active.

I have some shots of their unusual nest in the river section.

A Walking Tree grows new roots

based on where the sun is coming from.

Iguana

A wood carving in process.

This swallow hung around the dock.

and the restaurant.

There were plenty of BIG spider webs.

And plenty of birds to eat them up.

Here a great kiskadee hangs out amidst some berries.

The lighting was not conducive
to hummingbird photos.

But I did manage to capture this one.

Note the curved bill. 

I think it to be
a hermit hummingbird

long billed or stripe throated.

Little Blue Heron

Green Lizard

At one point I looked up and caught what looked like a taro dactyl fly by.

It was a magnificent frigate bird.

I spy a Baltimore Oriole.

Another fabulous day
behind the camera

in a magical wonderland.

It doesn't get better than this.
