I wanted to check out some bird areas , I did want to do that already for a while.(I was there around 9am...yes I did need a slow morning...)
Practicing in the small Flycatchers, so I did go to two spots in the Caldera area (600 m)... next to a river...not too much birds..a nice Anhinga, southern beardless Tyrannulets, yellow Tyrannulets and a lot of Turtles !! That was nice... I did count around 25 air bubbles...this one came up to get air and dove right away in the water...
I decided to go to another place next to a small creek...I was sitting there around 1,5 hours...I was later and that was o.k. because the birds went into the brush to have a rest...where I was sitting very silently...
This blue crown Motmot was sitting close to me, was watching me...what is she doing here?
