Squirrel cuckoo

Squirrel cuckoo

Marty’s photo of the day #4050: I photographed this squirrel cuckoo in Costa Rica. Yes, brown birds can be just as beautiful as those with bright colors. This photo also appears in my second book, Endangered Edens: Exploring the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Costa Rica, the Everglades, and Puerto Rico.

Marty’s photo of the day #4000: Holy shit! This is photo of the day four thousand. It’s hard to believe that I’ve been posting these for that long. Today I have a toucan that I photographed in the rainforest of Costa Rica. The damn branch refused to get out of my way!

Macaws

Macaws

Marty’s photo of the day #3952: When I was in Costa Rica, I heard macaws every day. Unfortunately, they were always deep in the rainforest—out of sight. Then, finally, on my last day, two flew out into the open for me to photograph.
