This was a nice bonus on our Costa Rica tour, where the main focus is birds.  This guy came out into the open for a while and gave us a bit of time to take his photo.  There wasn't much light to work with, but since sloths don't move too fast I was able to make a few sharp images.

Terrific pose and head turn with great eye contact and even a smile, Nate.

Good, clear view of this fascinating and unique creature, Nate! Great pose and capture of the algae infused fur with its green tinge.

Nicely done!

Sloths are such interesting animals. Love the curved branch it's working its way across. Really nice.
