For an animal that doesn't move much, sloths can be hard to photograph in a way that results in a photo worth looking at. However, on the last day of our workshop, we found this mother and baby, and the resulting photographs have caused me to delete all the ones from the rest of the week!

here is a less cropped version of the same mother and child photo i just posted-- the tree branch they're using was hanging out over the road --

from what i've seen, sloths often "hang around" near roads or human structures but maybe there are just a lot of sloths and the easy "low hanging" fruit are the ones we tend to notice & photograph...

A big fat furry sloth is hanging from a tree branch against a background of green forest. A small baby is clinging to her belly and upper chest, turned to tuck the top of baby's head under mom's chin. The sloths have black eyes with a noticeable dark mask around the eyes. This is Brown-throated Sloth, a three-toed sloth. Photo by Peachfront. Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica.
