a farm update and 20th of April 2013..sendero Los Quetzales, it was great

Today we went to the sendero los Quetzales, start with warm sunny weather at 7am and around 2.30 pm rain, but not so bad. Beautiful clouds.
The birds were great. Quetzales were flying around, very close by and good to see the silvery throated Jay , two nice silvery fronted Tapaculo's, three wattled Bellbirds...on the way home out of the car a great sight on the Mourning Dove.
Still everywhere(also on our farm) the good old Swainson's thrush...but not on the Quetzal trail...but on our way home nearby Cuesta del Piedra.
And still we did see a Osprey and 2 x Wilson's Warbler.
So the migrants are almost all on their way .
Yesterday on our farm still the Scarlet Tanager, a nice chestnut sided Warbler also a Wilson's Warbler.

The clay colored Thrush in front of our bedroom window has baby's , born 3 days ago... I will try to take pictures, as soon the parent is not there...

They were making a new bridge in front of the area of the start of river Caldera, surreal in the middle of the cloud forest. But good that they make the trail safer.
