Wildlife sitings are part of everyday existence in Monteverde. We've seen Capuchin monkeys and sloths in our backyard, and an incredible diversity of birds on the way to & from school. There are more species of birds living in Costa Rica (which is the size as West Virginia) than in all of the US and Canada combined.
Here's a taste:

| Our friend Chessi is standing at the base of this tree, and those flea sized black splotches to the left are cows. |
