While kayaking on the lagoon near Luna Lodge, we encountered a troop of white-faced capuchin monkeys feeding on flowers in a tree. We were told that the nectar in the flowers would disappear by late morning so the monkeys had to feed while the nectar remained in the flowers. Our kayaks, held still by the water plants, made for a perfect viewing platform. The monkeys looked at us curiously on occasion, then returned to voraciously feed. The white-faced capuchins are familiar to us as organ grinder monkeys.
