Sorry we haven´t been able to update the diary while we´ve been at Sacha Lodge, but don´t worry we HAVE been busy birding hard at this fantastic place from pre-dawn until way after dark, seeing everything from Nightjars and Owls to Tanagers and Tinamous, and everything you can imagine inbetween. This is a birder´s paradise, with forest trails, creeks to be explored by canoe and a canopy walkway and wooden tower so you can eyeball the birds in the treetops on their level. Just a few highlights have included Agami Heron, King Vulture, Spix´s Guan, Rufous-sided and Chestnut-headed Crakes, 12 species of parrot/macaws, Crested and Spectacled Owls, 5 species of Kingfisher, 6 species of Jacamar, 3 Puffbirds, 5 Araçari´s and numerous Antbirds, Antwrens, Antpittas and Antthrushes, Umbrellabird, and many many more. Oh, and a three-toed sloth, 5 species of Monkey and a Caiman. In all, thanks Marcelo and Ivan who guided us for the last four days, we have amassed an amazing total of 708 bird species for the year so far!! When we get the chance we´ll do a full write-up of our adventures here, but in the meantime if you want to find out more about this spectacular bird-filled place, log on to www.sachalodge.com, and book your trip - we can´t recommend it highly enough!Posted on 18th Jan, at 9pm local time Sacha Lodge, Amazon
