checking out finca Potoo

Today I took a morning off and so I decided to check our other farm in the area Estrella .
Some places windy (what a noise) some places more quiet...some berrie trees... almost dry river..but with a northern Waterthrush and birds in the berrie tree above me.( list down below) Good idea to eat an apple...and wait.

After that into the forest area...the spring ( ojo de aqua)  is still nice and give enough water. Nice rocks around...did see a cool Coral snake.Too fast for a picture.
Time for a cracker and water and just sit still and checking the area.
There I did see the common Pauraque...
I thought.. I take a picture, very hard with the wind ( moving leaves)...but NO he is on it!!!


New energy after this morning to go on with the coming busy days/ weeks.

I am SO looking forward to the wet season, to the first showers...mmmm, the clay colored Thrushes started to sing already and the yellow green Vireo's are very busy, couple of weeks to go with the sprinklers.
