Birds

We have been having difficulty getting an Internet connection - everyone is trying at once, so we all fail. Besides, the resort has had some problems, and I'm sure constant rain doesn't help.

I went to a renouned bird watching sanctuary today, and the owner took us to see several rare birds, including a chick. For those interested, the chick is the second photo. It is not a blob of compost, but a 14 day old chick in a mud nest. The yellow bit is its mouth (which is closed), there is an eye and a couple of nostrils, and is belongs to the first bird (which is a male).

Tomorrow we go to Quinto, and I join the next tour in the evening.
