"We saw crocodiles; a family of spider monkeys swinging from a tree by their tails; keel-billed toucans; a tarantula, the size of a man's fist; a hard-shelled horned beetle, almost as big as the tarantula; and brown-speckled bats blending right into the tree bark from which they hung."
"Coarse black hair bristled along his jaw and out of his ears, while his head was bald and shiny as a brown-speckled egg."
"As a relatively new and (very) amateur(-ish) birdwatcher, however, I'll offer this much: Blue jay eggs are usually brown-speckled against either a tan or greenish background."
