La Paz Waterfall Gardens is one of the best privately owned nature reserves in Costa Rica. Not only does it have several hiking trails which can take you to beautiful waterfalls in the jungle, but also it has a full-blown zoo and botanic gardens with local animals and plants.
Pictures can be more vivid and eloquent than a thousand of words, so what are you waiting for? Let's have a look together.
This aviary has 40 different species of birds.
There is a separate room where you can hold a real toucan. On this picture - Chestnut-mandibled toucan.
Keel-billed toucan.
Food for some birds.
Gorgeous scarlet macaws.
These birds mate for life.

There are many butterflies in the butterfly observatory.
Blue morpho butterflies like oranges and bananas.
Hummingbird (colibri) garden is completely open for birds, so they can fly away if they want to.
