A big Rainforest Hognosed Pitviper from the high forests of Guatemala a couple of years go. These are impressive little snakes that are nearly invisible in forest floor leaf litter.

Crossing a metal bridge on a trail through the Costa Rican rainforest, we were stopped by the sight of a Blunt-headed Tree Snake in the latter stages of eating a small lizard. The lizard was still trying to escape, but the snake was not going to lose this one. These tree snakes, with their huge eyes and comically thin bodies, seem kind of goofy, so it was cool to see one doing what they do, and know that for as silly as they seem to be, to a sleeping anole it is a pretty terrifying animal.
This Red-Eyed Treefrog was really dark compared to others I’d seen! Found on a nighttime walk in the Guatemalan rainforest.
