Central American Squirrel Monkey

Saimiri oerstedii

Once widespread, this monkey now only survives in the Manuel Antonio National Park, on the wild Osa Peninsula, close to the Panama border on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica and the very northern pacific tip of Panama. Since 2008 the species has classified on the IUCN red list as 'Vulnerable'

Brown Pelicans
Pelcanus occidentalis
This is a common sight on the pacific coast of Costa Rica. Thes pelicans fly in large flocks, effortlessly gliding over the crests of breaking waves as it hunts for fish. They can also be seen flying low above the coastal rainforest in elongated v formations, each bird taking it's turn in the slip stream of another, like in a speed cycling race.
