Georgetown - VI

Quite liking Georgetown, Guyana so have decided to give it a couple more days, with the Gardens seemingly the local 'hot spot' for wildlife. Am researching sites further afield such as the National Park and the shoreline a little further away?

 Was this the same 

STRIATED HERON

waiting for me at the gates of the Botanical Gardens again this morning?

 Displaying TROPICAL MOCKINGBIRD

 c2 very distant TOCO TOUCANs took to the wing

 flying across the main road and even further away.

 

 PLAIN-BELLIED HUMMINGBIRD

one of the 'specialties' at the Botanical Gardens.

 

 SOCIAL FLYCATCHER

 COMMON GROUND DOVE

Unidentified HUMMINGBIRD, we're working on it!

 

 A definite candidate for the Mile High Club

 this lone BLACK-COLLARED HAWK remained at altitude.

 YELLOW WARBLER

Not a lot of new birds today, but this 'lifer' is most welcome on the World List. 

RED-SHOULDERED MACAW

 seems like Macaw's are fond of this 'mutual preening'

will have to consult The Oracal - DAVE!

 

Parrotlet's with Common Ground Dove

 GREEN-RUMPED PARROTLET

 BLACK-CAPPED DONOCOBIOUS

 female THICK-BILLED EUPHONIA

 WATTLED JACANA

Just liked this long-distance shot of YELLOW ORIOLE
