Pacaya Samiria National Reserve by skiff. Amazon adventure

Our journey on the Queen Violeta was a wonderful experience. Today we will show you a little of the natural environment as it is all about the bird and animal life. Later when we get better wifi we will add the villages and people.
We had sightings of birds constantly. Any time you looked there would be birds in the frame! We saw over 50 different species along with over a dozen animals
We went our four times on the first full day, sometimes by boat but other times walking. We went out before breakfast and after dinner!
The skiff that holds 32 people was great for just the two of us.

It was not the Titanic or the Seabourn Quest but it was the perfect viewing platform

                                                       
                                                      A Black Collared Hawk

                                                       The Rufescent Tiger Heron

                                                                 A Green Iguana

We ventured up small creeks all part of the mighty Amazon system. We then returned for breakfast!

Wow - what an experience.
Sounds just like when Stu and I did a brewery tour and we were the only ones on the tour, so we got a private tour of the brewery. Just like that. Only with the Amazon River.
