Bird trip 31th of January 2012

Today it was needed to visit 3 different spots...Sun  bajareque (drizzel) high up in the mountains and again sun...of course spots out of the wind...
Summer winds are normal for the time of the year. Fortunately on our farm we are out of the wind, that is great , because birds don't like wind.
Also thanks to the curves and hills  in the mountains there are also higher up nice places out of the wind....
The fruit for the Thrushes, long tailed silky Flycatchers and Quetzales are ripe and so they are there....wind or no wind, they have to eat!
