Dag 19: Avenida 0 en Hotel Quelitales

Home Biota: what is it? Animals Plants Mammals Birds Insects NL EN

Today half a day of guiding with specific target species. Or actually mainly one species: the Cabanis' Ground Bunting. The municipality uses the Ground Bunting as a mascot: there is a large colorful statue of the species in front of the town hall. The municipality is also the place where the guide lives, so he also knew that owls sleep in the trees on the central plain. The owls had moved to another tree on the square, which the local employee could point out. And indeed they were in that tree. The tour also provides beautiful photos of the Common Tody-Flycatcher and another new flycacher.
