Horse and colt

This pastoral scene of a mother horse and colt was located along the road on a small finca (ranch) just before the entrance to Barra Honda National Park, near Nicoya, southeast of Tamarindo. The Guanacaste province of northwest Costa Rica has a very strong ranching tradition, with lots of horses and cattle.

I will post photos in the future from Barra Honda National Park, which features caves available to be explored with a guide.
