Wild bananas that are not good to eat, except for the monkeys.

The great egret.

These crocodiles were big!!!

Kingfisher-not the best photo, but these are very little birds.

Scarlet Macaw

Look how long their feathers are! This bird was way up in a tree so I was happy that my photo actually caught an image.

Great egret

Captain Hook was biggest crocodile that we saw & was right next to our boat.

Brown Pelicans with a couple of other birds.

Bare-throated Tiger Heron-a predator of the crocodile. (It eats the baby crocodiles.)

We cruised the river in a boat similar to this one. Those are teak trees lining the bank.

Jesus Christ lizard-named so because it can walk on water (actually run).
