    It was amazing... I want to go to La Selva for research later on in life.

    Yeah, I've been there. Its pretty cool. They cemented the paths so scientists can ride bikes through the forest. Some of my pics are from there.

    When my mom came down to visit me we went on a private river-ride, I'm embarrassed I can't remember the exact location. It was around the La Selva area though. Seing the turnup tail was cool for me, hes bigger than he looks in that pic. Some of my friends said they've seen him around the house a few times. I'm just glad I had a chance to look at him.

    If you ever go to La Selva I wouldn't be surprised if you see the same parrot. Him and a few others live in a dead tree on the campus. Its funny because when you knock on the hollow tree his head comes poking out like, "Who's there?"

    Glad you like them :)

    Yeah La Selva was amazing. We saw a Great Potoo, a pretty rare owl-like bird, which had been residing the same tree for a few weeks. It took me about 10 mins to find it with the guide telling me where it was... I wonder how the person saw it the first time! :weirdface:
