Laguna Sunset
This was the sunset two nights ago that greeted us as we were nearing the end of our river birding trip on the laguna and river in the bird sanctuary that runs between La Manzanilla and Boca de Iguana. The two young men who operated the oars on our boat pointed out hornbills, egrets, herons, cormorants, crocodiles, giant iguanas and a plethora of other birds as we quietly moved through the mangroves. At one point, we had to lean down flat in the boat to go under an extremely low bridge…but those pictures will follow. The point of this posting is the incredible sunset which was actually even more virant than these pictures depict. As we approached the beach again from the laguna, the sky was a vibrant scarlet. These pictures capture part of the ever changing spectacle.






Ooo, completely mesmerizing. If I was a mermaid, I’d be lured from the deep just to watch this. 🙂

Wonderful! And I’m so surprised to hear of my own Northeast seashore-ish birds living down there, too!

Yes and isn’t it amazing that it is always a surprise???? A friend once told me, “Once you’ve seen one sunset you’ve seen them all.” She can’t have been looking very closely.
