Our favourite little restaurant in Colonia Blanca on the edge of Rincon de La Vieja National Park always has some special guests when we stop by on our quad tours. These two toucans are free to fly in and out as they please. Quite often being a bit of a pain when you are trying eat. Toucans are usually shy and very hard to get close to at any time. These guys have it figured out!! On our side of the mountains the Keel Billed (Fruit Loops) toucan is abundant. The Chestnut Mandibled Toucan is more common on the caribbean side of the mountains. So given that Colonia Blanco is just over the divide we get both species. Lots of entertainment with these characters plus the plethora of hummingbirds that fly by like little jet fighters. Just another special treat in paradise. Pura Vida!
