A quick summary of February




















So, February...a trip up to Richardson and Oro, where we caught our third Barred Forest-Falcon and a male Royal Flycatcher. Did a couple more school visits at nearby villages. Went to the zoo, which is quite nice, by the way...more on that later. Saw the Harpy Eagle up close and personal (at the zoo). Granted I could go into much more detail on pretty much everything here but I know it's really the pictures that keep you coming back so we'll just leave it at that.

A rather stunning male Royal Flycatcher













A Plain Xenops and Wedge-billed Woodcreeper













Barred Forest-Falcon numero 3














Freaky Wood Thrush with a Botfly or some other nasty thing on it's face!














The leaning tower cake. Slightly scary to look at (and yes it is being held together with toothpicks), but oh so delicious. Chocolate cake with cheesecake filling, all smothered with chocolate icing. A heart attack waiting to happen. Amazing!














We also had a little Chinese New Year celebration. The kids spiced up the kitchen with lanterns and did a shadow puppet show. Quite festive.
