the last days... good birds...great weather..first black burnian Warbler today on our farm

I did do some nice hikes..the last couple of days and did see some nice birds..
Yesterday I just went for a short time to the cloud forest and sit on a rock ...a nice mixed flock was surrounding me..what a treat!
And when I walked back to my car a cute yellow faced grassquit was fighting with his image in the car mirror...poor guy , he was really upset.

The migrants are coming...today the first blackburnian Warbler!!on the farm .
And also on our farm the red eyed Vireo. Both in the coffeefarm area..
A few days ago a green snake was passing by while I was doing some ironing. I have in that room a great view on the garden. I heard a lot of birds very upset and there he was , a long 2 meters green Snake was in a hurry...a thick billed Euphonia Male was attacking him...really picking the head of the Snake... crazy...my discovery channel moment of the day!!!
I love to see Snakes, does not happen often..this one is a harmless green Snake...harmless for people , I bet he like to eat birds and other critters.
For the first time a great Kiskadee immature was coming close to our feeder, I took 2 pictures from our Balcony...

He did not do it ..was sitting there and observing..

The gray necked Wood Rails are noisy in the morning as also the buff rumped Warblers...our little creek in front of the little Tinamou cottage http://www.coffeeadventures.net/Little_Tinamou.html is very popular:

It was a great week with finally some good showers! Up to a brand new week...
