The Howler monkeys seem to be making quite a bit more noise lately, especially in the mornings. And we did have a Howler come really close to our little place yesterday - he came down low on the tree branches. Guillermo went out and got a few pictures of him.
I guess the monkey was checking out that guy with the little black box in front of his face.
Then, the night before, we found this grasshopper (locust) on the front porch. It's the same kind of insect that Fernando has on his photo blog.
Then Guillermo tried to pull it off the hammock, but it dug its heels in and could not be budged.
We also ate lunch yesterday at a little lunch-counter-type restaurant where apparently a lot of German people like to hang out. It's right around the corner from us so walking there we don't have a chance to get TOO hot, since it is close. It was nice hearing German spoken and talking with the other people at the counter.
We'll probably watch the Super Bowl today, if for nothing else than to check out the commercials.
Here are some birds we've seen around here lately. Turquoise-Browed Mot-Mot on the left and on the right is a Black Headed Trogon.
