Owls, Birding ... Pico Bonito Lodge

It was close to 8:30 am while we were enjoying Lovely Cotingas, Trogons,Motmots, Tanagers, Parrots and many other birds while 8 participants in the group were just surprised with all these beauties, then a Lady in the group said any chances of finding any more owls that these 5 pygmys we had seen this morning?? I replied telling her that there were some gorgeous owls rusting in the Gardens of Pico Bonito Lodge, so after a few more species and research of other targets we came to see this couple wonderful birds!!! I do remember voices like wowwwww, what a Bird! My God, and all those expressions that makes you feel satisfied when you find out the nice looking birds! Vermiculated or Guatemalan Screech Owl, at Pico Bonito Lodge! The place every birder must be.

It's not the Amazonas, it is not Taiwan or any of those places you would imagine through this photo. There is a place in Honduras where paradise meets the glory for those like me who can adore the special gifts we have on earth. It was 6;30 am my bins were ready, my boots on, and adventure was on my hands, nothing would matter more than the Eden around me., wonderful birds calling from everywhere, unforgettable landscapes in front of me, amazing creatures moving all over and my hungry eyes devouring all movements for my soul, I told myself "MAN WHAT DO YOU DO IN HERE?????"  La Moskitia Honduras
