Costa Rica : Monteverde

There are plenty of opportunities to discover the cloud forest in Monteverde and its surroundings : walks in the forest with a guide, canopy tours on the top of the trees, the local ranarium to be visited at night... All of them offer spectacular views.

In the category "animals", with a special mention for the quetzal (which should not be in this area before December...) :

In the category "hummingbirds" (no, I did not spend one hour making dozens of pictures of them... More like one hour and a half, actually... ;) :

In the category "frogs" (most of them are smaller than a nail !) :

This is just to give a small idea of what can be seen around (toucans, coatis and the local vulture zopilote can also be seen, but impossible to make a decent picture...)
