Spectacled Owl - Gatun Locks On a trip to Panama, I stopped just after crossing the Gatun Locks causeway and stepped into the forest just a couple hundred meters up the road. During my trek along a dirt road, I heard very excited frogs singing from 50 feet away through the thick palms. To my surprise the frogs were singing from up in the trees and a bigger surprise was, they were Toucans!! The big-billed birds were very excited about something! It turns out, it was our friend here, a Spectacled Owl. Michael W Klotz 2016 - www.TheBirdBlogger.com Picture
Spectacled Owl - Gatun Locks, Panama
Great Kiskadee - Gamboa, Panama This very conspicuous bird was flycatching on the edge of Ammo Dump Pond at the beginning of the famous pipeline road. They are very noisy and very bright and find the most obvious spots to sit. There are a great many birds in this family of flycatchers and it is sometimes very difficult to figure out which one of the cousins have come for dinner. Michael W Klotz - www.TheBirdBlogger.com
