Panama Day 7: #731-#733 at the Canopy Lodge
On Satrurday, after a couple of hours of driving (half of which I slept through), we arrived at the Canopy Lodge in time for lunch. And I got upgraded to a large room. Yay! My room at the Tower was the size of a large closet. And I have a balcony that has a good view of a tree popular with birds waiting for the feeder. Good for photography. On the downside the Wifi is much less reliable at the Lodge than the Tower. I don’t know why.
The lodge has feeding platforms that attract a different group of birds since we’re further west and higher up. However there were, a bit surprisingly, no lifers at lunch. After lunch though, we walked up the road and explored a bit in the Canopy Adventure, and this added four new species:
- Rufous-capped Warbler (one of my target birds)
- Common Tody-Flycatcher
- Streaked Saltator
- Orange-billed Nightingale-Thrush (good find; these are secretive and usually hard to see
