Fiery-billed Aracari, Costa Rica
Aracaris are medium-sized toucans, rather slender and long tailed.
Fiery-billed is distinctive: the top half of the bill is bright orange.
Also note the red belly band. Most often found in small flocks; favors any sort of forested area including edges and gardens.

Bar-tailed Godwit
At first glance resembles a smaller version of a Curlew - similar shape (long legs and neck) and plumage (grey/brown with streaking). The long, straight and slightly upturned bill, however is quite different. Summer plumaged birds occur sometimes, showing varying amounts of orange/brick red on the body feathers.
Bar-tailed can easily be confused with the slightly longer-legged and more elegant Black-tailed Godwit, however in flight,
Bar-tailed always shows fairly uniform, grey brown upperwings, a long white rump and a finely barred tail
(Black-tailed is strongly patterned with black and white wings and tail and a square white rump). Usually seen feeding along outer shoreline of estuaries. Sometimes in large flocks.

Eurasian Kingfisher
Beautiful little blue-and-orange bird with a long, pointed bill. Often rather shy and inconspicuous despite bright plumage. Found along rivers, streams, lakes, and ponds—almost any fresh or brackish habitat with small fish. Often perches quietly in trees over water; most often seen in very fast low flight as a turquoise flash over the water, usually flying away. Easily detected once its high, shrill whistled call is learned, even if the bird itself is hidden. I saw the blue flash about 5 times and I was giving up and taking an image of another bird on a boat when it landed beside me.
Obelisk sunrise
Killiney Hill. This is a bit of a Fathers Ted and Dougal photo… the rock pool in the foreground is quite small, more usually occupied by my Labrador when we ‘Walk the hill’
But it acts as a visual substitute for the sea, which lies below the Obelisk, beyond the trees

Dalkey Quarry is an abandoned quarry on Killiney hill. It was first used during the constuction of Dún Laoghaire pier between 1815 and 1817, and was finally abanded in 1917. The old quarry gives the appearance of dramatic cliff edge on Killiney hill, with old stone structures on it's peak.

Wild white-faced Capuchin Monkey, Costa Rica.
White-faced or capuchin monkeys are one of the four species of monkeys that can be found in the forests of Costa Rica.
When you eventually find them they will tell all of their family that you have arrived and some may take a peek at you or throw things at you.
Do not stand under them or they could also urinate on you. Some very wise Monkeys.
Have a great weekend.

Wild Red-eyed Tree Frog- Costa Rica
As evidenced by their name, Costa Rica frogs live in the trees of Costa Rica Rainforests. In most cases, they will spend their years in the upper parts of the trees. The species has adapted quite well to this life, which is probably most evident in their feet. In addition to being webbed, tree frogs' feet have tiny suction cups on the bottom. These discs allow the frogs to cling to leaves without fear of falling to the ground. They also have long, sticky tongues, which makes it easier to catch food as they hop through the leaves. Most tree frogs eat insects such as moths and crickets, though some of them may also eat smaller frogs.
The most prominent feature of the red-eyed tree frog is its eyes. Scientifically known as Agalychnis callidryas, this amphibian's red eyes have very narrow pupils that run vertically and make for a unique appearance
Each of these bright colours play a part in the animal's safety and well-being, but this is especially true for the eyes and feet. These excellent jumpers spend most of their days motionless among the leaves. They use their legs to cover their blue and yellow stripes and keep their eyes closed, only opening them to startle predators.
Oh did I mention my fear of frogs.
Thank you for your views, comments and faves. Much appreciated.
