I’m now in this very interesting country that is Panama. We had early morning (6:30 a.m.) bird watching along the Pipeline Road. It covers approximately 4 miles of rainforest. We saw an abundance of birds and wildlife such as White-Faced Capuchin Monkeys and various types of rodents. This has made a birder out of me. I even had the privilege of joining a small group of six experienced birders who didn’t mind being my instructors along the way. After that, we visited the Gamboa resort that overlooks the Chagres River. WHAT A VIEW! We are now transferring to the next hotel in time to start greeting the first group of participants as they arrive.
