Xenornis

Por un reporte realizado en el dia de ayer por nuestro colega, José Tejada, fuimos hoy en la mañana Jan Axel Cubilla y Rafael Luck a Gamboa para encontrarnos con Rafael Lau y Jose Soto del Gamboa Rainforest Resort en el muelle del Resort. Gracias a la cortesía de José Soto en una embarcación vimos muchas aves, entre ellas American Coots y 7 patos: Black-bellied Whistling-Duck, Muscovy Duck, Ring-necked Duck, Lesser Scaup, American Wigeon, Blue-winged Teal y Northern Shoveler.

Bill Adsett, Loyda Sánchez and Delicia and Darién Montañez went to el Cenagón del Mangle to look for the Jabiru that were reported in november. They didn't see it, though. But just to make the 4 hour drive worthwile, they saw many pairs of the very rare Common Ground-Dove. On their way to the Ciénaga de Las Macanas they saw about four Aplomado Falcons, and in the Ciénaga itself had distant views of a flock of more than 50 Lesser Scaup with a few Blue-winged Teal mixed in for easy comparison.
