Day 4

 

Wow, what amazing days! My brain is on overload after such amazing experiences. Here are a few highlights from yesterday and  today:

- Hiking through the Tayrona national park yesterday morning we encountered Cotton-Top-Tamarin monkeys - one of the rarest primates on Earth!

- Meeting incredible nationals along the way. If you ask me, the people of Colombia are incredible.

- This Masked Trogon (left) flew to within about 12 feet of me today. My heart was pounding as my camera snapped away.

- Hearing the unsettling drone of Red-Howler monkeys in the distance

Tomorrow we're off at 4:30 am in search of Santa Marta Parakeets!

This little girl reminded me of my precious Lily back home

Total number of birds seen so far: 196
