An adventure to go watch the endemic Jocotoco Antpitta to the southern Ecuador. Unfortunately we did no get it to the feeder but we saw we our local guide in the trail before getting to the feeding spot, we had fun with the local guide as he was knowledgeable of the birds of the place, we enjoyed the hummingbird feeders and the food was tasted.
We really enjoyed our day with Antonio. We saw all the main attractions (except the Andean Bear) and had a relaxed and awesome day. We loved the hot springs and the altiplano areas near the antennae. Antonio was very friendly and a careful driver. We spoke Spanish with him, which was our preference.
Our day visits went very well, except for a late show by the warden at Yunguilla, but this did not unduly affect our experience (we still saw the rare Brush-Finch). The wardens and staff were great, and the lunches were exceptional. For us birdwatchers it was a dream come true. Very special days.
