Sunning with the Costa Rican Crocodiles Carara National Park protects the Tárcoles River Basin in Costa Rica. A haven for wildlife… populations include a diverse variety of waterfowl and Rainforest favorites… Toucans, Hummingbirds, Parrots especially the Scarlet Macaws. My chance to photograph Reptiles & jungle Animals… Monkeys, Sloths, Poison Arrow Frogs, but at the top of my list was the American Crocodile. In addition, I was in Costa Rica to shoot a catalog cover, seeking a tropical jungle backdrop, I hired a Panga Boat with local guide Sebastian to scout out a location. He mentioned a spot ahead where he could let me ashore, I would be able to walk up over a small rise and the Crocodillos will be sunning on the other side. I was busy putting the 80-200 zoom on my camera and we headed ashore, as he dropped me off the bow I inquired about the size of the crocs, he replied in Spanish that they would be only 10 meters away! I asked directly, is this safe? With all the confidence in the world he replied… ¡No Tienes Hambre! translation:: Don’t worry Señor they are not very hungry Captured May 1999 on Kodachrome 25, Nikon F3, Nikkor 80-200mm zoom See my latest work online… http://www.martyhiester.com ©Marty Hiester- Creative Commons (CC by NC 3.0) #crocodiles #tarcolesriver #costarica #MARTYhiester (at Tárcoles River)
