There is something very special about sunsets in the estuary. Humans & wildlife
both seem to be at ease. Feeding is complete at this time for most birds and we
find groups of Spoonbills, Egrets, Herons, and Pelicans congregating on the shell
banks. The trip is limited to 6 guests and travels north of the historic city up the
Tolomato River to observe birds socializing along the riverbanks. Favorites include
White Pelicans, Common Loons, Roseate Spoonbills, and Black-bellied Plovers.
North of the Guana River we will stop beneath an Osprey nest to look for new
additions to the family. The vessels utilized for this excursion are custom made
for the purpose of wildlife viewing & photography. The boats are safe & dry with
comfortable seating. Most photographers are comfortable shooting up to 500mm
handheld.
