Date<\/strong><\/em>: Monday, 03 October 2022<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trajectory<\/em><\/strong>:  Puerto Iguaz\u00fa to San Ignacio<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Distance covered:<\/em><\/strong> 250 km<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strange noises in the night turned out to be a nest by my bedroom window \u2013 can\u2019t identify the species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

A picnic breakfast of leftovers and a visit to the humming bird garden before leaving Puerto Iguaz\u00fa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

It\u2019s a very small garden but is full of birds, mainly humming birds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Here\u2019s one of the humming birds in the garden \u2013 there should be between 10 and 16 species if you know how to distinguish them (I\u2019m learning!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

So I don\u2019t [yet] know what kind of bird that is, and won\u2019t have time to work on the 250 photos I took until the journey is over. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My bird of the day is a thrush-like wren that I spotted high in a palm tree in the street outside \u2013 not a great photo, but a lifer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

I liked this sign in the bird garden …<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

… and I made friends with a turtle there (no idea what species).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

After nearly two and a half hours I had the final remains of my picnic breakfast and drove on to San Ignacio, to the friendly hotel La Toscana where I was ready for a siesta. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Tomorrow I hope to visit the Jesuit ruins at San Ignacio and if time Loreto and Sta Ana before continuing south.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
