During my stay in Costa Rica I’ve been volunteering for several organizations — working six days a week. I’ve been asked to produce a historical documentary for a non-profit organization’s 70th anniversary. We are near the end of the researching and interviewing process for the mini-documentary. For this project, we’ve been running around the San Jose metropolitan and suburban areas. I’ve met many Costa Ricans and foreign residents. I’ll be doing my last interview, hopefully this Wednesday. Last Sunday, early in the morning after a photo shooting for this project, I decided to do a dry run and check out the location for my last interview. I found, an environmental paradise. A bird sanctuary with over 4,000 species, said the owner of an organic coffee plantation and vineyard. I also found a huge lizard, I walked near an active African bee hive and saw from a distance a crocodile. All of which I photographed! I ate anise leaves and grapes while I hiked the trails of this paradise — perhaps a story will come out of this once I finish the documentary in February.
Above are some photos I shot. Enjoy!
Great pictures, Margie! Costa Rica has such interesting animals!
I am enjoying your blog M. In fact, enjoying getting to everything about you! Keen to know where in Santa Ana you found this bird sanctuary and intriguing walk.
Pura vida!
