Our group kicked off our tour with a pre-tour trip to ZuroLoma which is NW of Quito. Feeders here were blisfully overwhelming. This Andean Guan enjoyed the banana offering!

It was quite a hike at this high elevation to get to this White-throated Screech-Owl…but clearly so worth it! Another beauty from Zuro Loma preserve.
