Trips
Colombia - Santa Marta
10/11/2024
: We arrived at a ranch lower down the hill, but it rained for several hours in the afternoon. When the rain stopped, we walked around for awhile, but we did not see much.
10/12/2024
: In the morning, we walked around at the ranch and did some bushwhacking in the dense brush next to the creek. Then, we went over to a spot with a bunch of special flowers to look for hummingbirds. From there, we drove around on a bunch of backroads around Minca.
Some Lilac-tailed Parrotlets had been reported in the area, and we were lucky to see them very close before the rains came in again.
10/13/2024
: Visited a couple of other spots around Minca before heading over to the coast.
