Hoffman's Two-toed Sloth scratching
They seem to be spending a lot of time doing that! This animal was hanging by the right side limbs and using both of the left interchangeably to scratch.- njlarsen

Staring Contest
I saw these two birds at a large distance, a Crested Oropendola and a Black-chested Jay. They were, as far as I know, not in touching distance at any time, but eventually, the oropendola took over the top seat and the jay disappeared.- njlarsen

Common Tody-Flycatcher juvenile
Another bird from right outside our balcony. I strongly believe this is a juvenile based on gape, buffy tint to wing markings, and overall grayness. Subspecies wetmorei.- njlarsen

The little thief
I have most often seen hummingbirds with long bills being interested in this flower. However, Bananaquit also likes the nectar, but because it has a short sharp bill, it has to make a back door to get into the goods.- njlarsen

White-shouldered Tanager
The female is actually found but very out of focus in the upper left corner. Below the bill of the male, on the leaf is something orange - this seems to have been some type of morsel, on the following images it was trying to bite off a piece.- njlarsen

Tawny-crested Tanager immature male
This bird was part of a larger flock. I am convinced it is an immature male given the female like colors on the side of the head and the hint of a tawny crest feather.- njlarsen
