I am planning to head back to Costa Rica, I say back because I have been there in 2011 on a voluntary project with a research organisation before this blog. Which I did a number of things in regards to animal research by documenting all the species of animals we had come across from marine sea turtles, to the 4 species of primate of the region being spider, squirrel, howler and the brown capuchin, the region being specifically the Osa peninsula area. Which is highly regarded as one of the most biodiverse places on the globe. And thanks for the views.

I also have one picture of myself and the team of other researchers on the piro beach during a whale survey, in which we believe we had seen two humpback whales a mother and calf as the water around the Osa peninsula are used as a nursery warm and not so harsh waters. For the young to first experience ready for the long migration north, ready for the bloom of plankton of all kinds. While avoiding all manner of dangers.
