I stopped dead in my tracks at the sight of an Altamira Oriole. I never realized what a gorgeous brilliant orange bird with contrasting black markings this bird is. Even with the dark, overcast skies you can still admire the bird's brilliant plumage. some of which are blocked out by the leaves.
The light was fading and it was time to leave. It was a pleasure to find and photograph these remarkable birds. On my way out I spotted a Chachalaca that faintly resembles a small turkey on the forest floor. He spotted me and quietly disappeared into the woods.
