Volcan Poas - Costa Rica |
|
 |
|
Two friends and I spent the afternoon at
the top of Volcan Poas. It was shrouded in fog at first then
suddenly the clouds parted to reveal the active crater, and what a
magnificent sight it was. This was an excellent
choice as it is close to San Jose, Costa Rica. 25 February 2017. |

The birds were magical
and blended in well with the vegetation in the cloud forest.
