End of December 2016 and beginning of January 2017, nice outings with very nice birdwatchers.
And at home in between all the busy holidays.. picking coffee.
Very difficult when you pick coffee and hear constantly birds above you and around you. Specially when the Northern wind is blowing hard in the mountains, the birds are hiding in our little valley ...out of the wind.
The 1th of January was really nice , when 2 fiery billed Aracari's were flying in the farm and did hang around with me for 20 minutes or so. Of course I did not have my camera with me.
Today (3th of January) I did go to the cloud forest, more or less around 1700 M altitude. The birds were hiding, but some were very nicely in the open. Yes finally I took some pictures... my new plan for 2017, taking more pictures. Whether it will work, we will see. Down below (and one above) some of today and a couple of lists of the new year until now.
Greetings Terry
