Corcovado

This is the first picture I took within the first 15 minutes of entering the surrounding forests of Corcovado national park. We had yet to officially set foot in the park before laying eyes on the first of many sitings of the Common Black Hawk foraging in a stream. Hundreds and thousands of song birds and insects singing all around us, trees tower over our heads as we trekked along a dirt "road" in a collectivo (chicken bus) into the seemingly endless jungle. Here, and with a sequence of photos capturing the black hawk catch his prey, we start a journey of 4 days and 3 nights in what ticos refer to as "el paradiso de Costa Rica" -Corcovado.
