Guanacaste Province, COSTA RICA

Hacienda La Pacifica was our base in the area for our four-night stay and the site of our daughter, Beth’s Costa Rican wedding to Pablo on Saturday.
Our immediate impressions here were great, as you kept running into the prolific local wildlife. Deer, rodents, Agouti (Watoosi in Spanish) a frog living in our room’s shower recess and some small lizards on the walls.
Rufous-naped Wren (Campylorhynchus rufinucha)
During our stay, we also saw a troupe of howler monkeys, iguanas and several other species, “native cane toad” (which are apparently endangered), and many bird species.
Black Spiny-tailed Iguana (Ctenosaura similis)
Whilst we were there we saw:
Reptiles: Black Spiny-tailed Iguana, Asian House Gecko
Birds: Rufous-naped Wren, Inca Dove, Turquoise-browed motmot, Clay-coloured Thrush
Mammals: Central American Agouti, White-tailed Deer, Variegated Squirrel
