Day
Break Activity Tour
With the
first blush of morning, amid dappled shadows and misty morning light,
we leave the warmth of our bungalows to pay fitting tribute to the
beginning of a new day. Dewdrops glint like diamonds, shimmering,
dancing across the tree trunks as the first light of dawn filters
through the forest canopy overhead. Close your eyes for just a moment,
as you slowly breathe in the refreshing morning air. 6:00
a.m.
After a cup of steaming coffee we begin a short session of stretching
and relaxation exercises designed to aid us in our exploration
of the grounds surrounding the lodge. Enjoy the rich green canopy
of branches and leaves, casting their shadow over lush verdant
foliage and misty dew-filled nature trails. Watch as Costa Rica’s
brilliant Blue Morpho Butterfly delicately flutters over its favorite
flower, or listen to the sounds of the trees whispering in the
morning breeze. Our naturalist guide will lead you from the Pacuare
Lodge along a series of sites from which you can observe buzzing
hummingbirds, dancing butterflies and exquisite tropical flowers.
Our guide will point out delicate bromeliads, like the lovely
“sexy lady”, and answer questions about the wide variety
of native ferns, lichens and orchids. See Mother Nature at her
best as you spot the many birds and other wildlife that are indigenous
to the area. Look and listen carefully for the Montezuma Oropendula,
which nests far above in the towering trees. The area around the
lodge is home to an extraordinary number of exotic bird species
that include the Sun Bittern, Red-throated Ant-Tanager, Black-cheeked
Woodpecker and a variety of colorful toucans. Our guide carries
a telescope and will gladly identify the different species that
come our way. Binoculars are also available. The tour lasts about
an hour and a half, after which we will return to the lodge for
a hot delicious breakfast.
