27th of August, a few hours time for open field birds...

Today I did go to an area 10 min from our house. It is a field where the owner planned to make a development, it is not going on and the field is now messy, surrounded by dense brushes, scrubs and forest and fantastic for birds...
It was cloudy and no wind.

I did start with a buff rumped Warbler at the little creek and above them a group of gray headed Chachalaca's, I was not out of my car yet!!! A good start...
