Also on Facebook as Tucan & Tarpon (not a typo, it is spelled the Spanish way but for the website I realized I would be forever explaining that, so I left it English).

I'm sorry, what do you want me to update?? Thanks for the ID Bayucca, as always! pura vida. I do have a couple of good bugs to post soon. If you come to Costa Rica again you should drop by, we are now open, www.toucanandtarpon.com. Some of the local guides say our trails are more interesting than in the park here. (Tortuguero)
