Extra pictures that I neglected to put in that last post mostly because I didn't have time. However, semi-unfortunate circumstances have given me more time. William, a co-worker, got sick and so we had to come back from the jungle earlier than planned. Actually we made it to Richardson camp (someday I'll get a map on here so this all makes sense) before he decided he couldn't go any farther (4pm). Setup the hammocks, realized we didn't have any pots to cook in because we had left them farther up at Calera (our intended destination), waited for and hour before William wanted to go back to BFREE. So, we packed up and started hiking. Most of which ended up being in the dark. Amazingly enough we managed not to get lost and William didn't die, although we did have to abandon his pack. Which brings me back to the beginning of this little...oh blast, I can't think of the word...whatever, basically now I have time to post a few more pictures starting with a ripe wild cocoa pod...
William eating the cocoa fruit, some what psychotically (not sure if that's really spelled right)
Scrub Euphonia
Violet Sabrewing - a female, not quite as impressive as the males but still quite lovely
Wedge-tailed Sabrewing
Eye-ringed Flatbill
And finally, a couple pictures from Oro...trees and whatnot
