Every evening before dinner, we shared a libation and the the spotting scope by the pool and the daytime birds headed home to roost and night time birds began their eerie calls. The tinamous come to mind:
We got acquainted with the normal animals of the farm. The first one we visited was the new bull calf from our herd of 5:
Next we met Mona, the farm's watchdog who kept us abreast of any potential danger she heard in the jungle with here curt barking.
At night we were visited by giant Marine Toads(Bufo marinus) they hopped around the outside of the house and unsuccessfully engaged in
Amplexus with the Concrete Toads(Bufo concretus).
We ate well every night. Chicken, snapper, shark with wine and occasionally we had some delicious 23 year old Guatamalen rum.
We did the normal chores like the laundry. It was the dry season, so we saved gas and dried the clothes outside.
Part 3 up next.
