Field Notes

Description:

These little guys might have been an inch long with red bodies and bright blue legs.

Habitat:

We were in a private reserve on the edge of La Fortuna. Our guide heard them and found them under some leaf litter, then put them in a bromeliad for us to photograph.

It's the blue jeans morph. I was surprised by how tiny they were when I first saw them myself.
