| Miners, motmots and tinamous…oh my. I have been dreaming more and more about birding Peru this coming June and July. Mirages of giant otters and Hoatzin dance in my head nightly. To satiate this tropical hungry, I have been consuming YouTube videos at an incredible rate. There are many fine videos from various birders as they have toured this wonderful country. It is invaluable to see the places that I am going to visit and the species I plan to observe. I think that seeing a creature in motion with audio is critical to solid identification. |

Thanks for the plugg Radd. There are some good stuff among those videos. It is a media I need to develop more. Luckily some clients like Keith Blomerly have documented our tour to Manu. More is needed though.
