I’m still working on my hundreds of photos of birds photographed on Rio Tarcoles Monday, so I will start with one of the last things we saw, a Troop of White-faced Capuchin Monkeys among the trees along Mantas Beach (Playa Mantas), which I first visited while staying at Hotel Punta Leona in March of 2019. The beach photo below was made then. 🙂 The hotel and resort development owns most of the land but the government says beaches cannot be private, so Walter took us to a little trail at the end of one street in the village of Punta Leona to get here, mainly for the monkeys and sloths. I did not get a sloth photo this time, but some of my Canadian friends did. To see more of these monkey photos, go to what will become a sub-gallery of this Trip Gallery: Playa Mantas Monkeys 2025 or if you want more, see my capuchins from all over CR in gallery: White-faced Capuchin Monkeys.
¡Pura Vida!
Sonogram Report Yesterday
I do have a “spot “on one of my lymph nodes and next Tuesday I have “surgery” with a needle to get a biopsy, but he thinks it is most likely benign, not cancer. But if cancer, it will be easy to remove.
Hi Charlie,
Will be praying for good results on Tuesday.

Thanks Robbie! Once you’ve had cancer it seems to keep hanging around! 🙂 But I’m confident that I’m in good hands. Thanks for your prayers!
