Another shot of a Tayra.

This is probably my favorite shot of the Tayra. I like the spiderweb in the photograph as well.

I really like this creature.

This animal is called a Tayra as you can see from the title. I’ve been fortunate to have seen Tayra a few times in Costa Rica but it was another pleasant surprise to see one in Ecuador as well. This one showed up while my birding photography group was at some bird feeder stations, photographing birds or course. My guess is that the Tayra frequents this location to pick up scraps. It hung around for about ten minutes or so. Unfortunately I was really close to it which may seem fun but with my long camera lens it was hard to capture a lot of shots, especially because I didn’t want to scare it away by moving around as everyone else was watching it too. I’ll post more photos of this Tayra in the coming days.
