Spent an enjoyable couple of hours aboard a jungle pontoon boat on the Tortuguero canals of Costa Rica, where I was lucky enough to see a few creatures, this Sloth was one:

Must be great to see a sloth in the wild. Nice capture, Sue.
Best wishes, Pete.
It was marvellous! Glad you like this, Pete
Beauty Sue – lucky you!!!
Thanks, Tina! I was lucky 😀
Sounds as though this was an amazing cruise Sue – where next I wonder!
It was amazing, Jude, but very expensive….not something I can make a habit of, alas…
Well it is good to treat oneself once in a while. As my mother was fond of saying, “you can’t take it with you”
Well, I know I can’t take it with me, but I need to live rather than just exist before I shuffle off the mortal coil!
All too true 😀
Quite….
Great take!
Happy weekend!
Thank you! Have a lovely weekend yourself
We saw a sloth in the Costa Rican rain forest, too, Sue, and it was so cool. Easy to get a shot, as you don’t have to worry about fast movement. 🙂

No, they are not exactly speedy!😀
Maybe they’re slothful, you think? 🙂
🙄😉
Oh, how wonderful! This was some trip Sue, and this is a wonderful 6 word entry.
Thanks, Debs! Glad you like my sloth
It looks wonderfully relaxed – although the thought of hanging like that but three appendages doesn’t feel relaxing to me. I love the way his fourth paw just hangs. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a photo of one before, just the verbal image of idleness. Your cruise is sounding more and more interesting.
Dear old sloth! I do agree, I wouldn’t find that manageable now, never mind unrelaxing!!
That sloth is a great capture. Love just how is hangs there by its arm and feet.
I was so pleased to have seen this, and other creatures, on my brief foray along a canal in the rainforest!
oh wow how amazing . . . and you got a great shot too. Wonderful 6WS, I have been hanging around too which is why it has taken me so long to pop along and say hi.
Thank you, Becky – glad you like this!
Great six words, great capture! I was beaten to the slothful gags 😦
Oh, Jo, what a shame you didn’t get to do the gags….🙄
Love it!!!! High swinger!!!!
And really cute into the bargain!
I have always wanted to see a Sloth. What an experience, Sue!
It certainly was!
