Very interesting breakfast, with pan casero and varios home made jams \u2013 these here all from various cactus and succulents, and all interesting tastes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After breakfast I sussed out a good place for a trail camera, a water hole in the very dry landscape here \u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0… which I\u2019ll check tomorrow. For now I left the camera in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Then to an asado in the countryside with a local family who keep bees and other animals\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

… consisting of pork and beef, salad, roast vegetables, etc. \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

… followed by a walk around their land to see the most enormous palo borracho tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I bonded with the owner of the land, who was very proud of his Chaco heritage and keen to explain flora and fauna \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u2026 and who invited us to his nearby farm where we spent a pleasant two or three hours among the people and animals while his brothers drank mate and dehusked maize for the livestock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Drove back to the Tantanacuy Guest House for beer and snooze, then supper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Bird of the day: the grayish baywing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tomorrow yet to define.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
