This video is about national parks in Costa Rica.
18 March 2014.
Costa Rica; after earlier in the afternoon, still near Parque Nacional Juan Castro Blanco.
Walking down the mountain road, not only long-tailed silky flycatchers, but also flowers. This orchid species is called bandera española, Spanish flag, in Costa Rica. This is because it has the same red and yellow colours as that flag.
Two nine-banded long-nosed armadillos close to the road. See also here on that species.
More mammals: mantled howler monkeys with a youngster.
We are back. A slate-throated redstart on a branch.
On the other side of the stream, chestnut-capped brush finches.
Both adults and juveniles, with duller colours, are present.
Also on that side, a Central American agouti.
A black guan flies, while calling.
