Magnificent Macaws

This very area is one of the best places to see Lapas Rojas, Scarlet Macaws; the largest of all parrots.
The first sunlight (around 6 am) this morning hit this pair of Macaws perched outside their nest (a hole high up in a dead tree trunk).
It's a symphony of colours when they launch into flight.
Later on, while we had breakfast on the porch, this pair did a fly-by.
After a rather quiet late morning we got an unexpected visit by the MC bikers.
They stopped by for a quick lunch on their way from the south en route westwards to Nicoya Peninsula.
Today's cuties are definitely these pink bananas (about 5 cm long).

Will be beach combing and swimming right after sunset. Hope to meet a crab-eating raccoon.
