busy times

The last week was very busy, a lot of "new" bird watchers... and quit a bit of birds. 
 Exept on  the way to Bocas with two birders, we did leave very early from Boquete , but still not really a lot of birds.

I saw a lifer (unfortunately the birders with me ..did not see them) Saw them (two) very good. I had long time the chance to see them working on the leaves.
Nashville Warblers!!  And I had my camera in the car ......

Also nice, after passing the continental divide a mixed group with silver throated Tanagers and Emerald Tanagers..great view. On the continental divide not so birdie. When I came back in the afternoon , I did go to the same spot and still(around 5pm) not so birdie. I saw 3 birds flying in a brush and for a half hour I saw dark wings going up and down , but I could not see them...Thrush liky...man what a frustraton..I took a picture of the brush....

Enough flowers, but not so much Hummers

But there is always a nice tree to watch with Montezuma Oropendulas, busy building nests

I think the weather was too good on the continental divide, blue skies!! The birds were fast silent.
