Observe various species of hummingbirds at close range
A quite place in the middle of Santa Teresa! The main attraction for us were the hummingbird feeders at the far end of the park. A lot of hummingbirds of about 8 different species. They don't bother if you get close to take pictures. But there is also a family of Atlantic Titi (monkey) around, although the female died a few months ago. You can also visit exhibition rooms, a greenhouse etc. The entrance to the park was free.
Nice place to have nature's contact in downtown of Santa Teresa city... people are friendly and the site propose a great nature experience for kids...
What magical place to visit, a little of the wilderness from that area all concentrated in 1 place. Plants and animals to see and learn about
