We're here in the rain forest of Costa Rica, managing a Tree House B&B, where the tree houses (seven total) are high amongst the trees...our neighbors consist of loads of hummingbirds, some monkeys, sloths, frogs, snakes, iguanas, geckos and various other critters...we look forward to sharing with you some pics and blog entries as we continue on our jungle journey...

The Blue Morpho
There is probably a scientific name for this critter, but we know it as a Blue Morphy Butterfly, and it's one of the more striking butterflies that we see down here. In the sunlight, the blue is extremely bright when it's fluttering about, and it never fails to draw oohs and aahs from the guests. This photo, taken by a guest, is of an older morpho, as the blue is a little darker and duskier than the ones that are flying about. Pretty sure this critter was near the end of its lifespan.
