While the others were eating lunch in Sandia I used the time looking for the Green-capped Tanager. I managed to see two in a garden at the right hand side shortly after a waterfall (to the left) about two kilometres below Sandia at approximately 2100 m. After lunch we continued our way to San Juan del Oro. However, we didn’t make it all the way to San Juan del Oro, while climbing to Abra Maruncuna (2200 m) the road got really bad and we decided to return to Sandia. Blue-banded Toucanet Andean Guan
I am from Norway and lived with my family in Peru between 2007 and 2010. Then I worked as a missionary at Centro Luterano de Educación Teologica and Seminario Teológico Luterano Andino. We have now returned to Norway, but I hope to update this blog with more photos from my eleven years in Peru and Bolivia. I have studied Theology, History, Sociology, Educational Pedagogies and Spanish at different universities. I have watched birds since the age of twelve.
