Collared Aracari
In the afternoon we had more Aracaris, Keel-Billed Toucans, Chestnut-Mandibled Toucans, Montezuma Orependolas, Green Ibis and even a Coatimundi visiting the area all in the space of a couple of hours - heaven!
The Lodge also provides a great opportunity to watch and photograph a bird that most will consider ugly, but do have amazing colours - the King Vulture.
A well-known name in the photography world, Bence Mate, set up a hide to watch this species only a short walk from the Lodge grounds. I took up the opportunity watch these animals on my first full day in the area on a swelteringly hot and humid morning. Despite sweating what felt like my body-weight, it was well worth it to see them!
