Another super day. This time an inland based trip but not before racking up Chilean Skua and South American Tern. I set off early this morning to Tierra del Fuego national park with a growing band of men now numbering 8 in total as the birders on the trip have now found each other. Not hard to do really; just look for the weirdo's with nothing better to do with their time than to stare out to sea.
Anyway the Yamanas were the indigenous people of (TDF) before european settlers killed them all off with disease by 1910. Very sad indeed; but on a brighter note we scored heavily with a huge list of birds the highlights being
WHITE THROATED CARACARA
MAGELLENIC WOODPECKER
ANDEAN CONDOR (very impressive)
Punta Arenas early tomorrow so no celebartions tonight as last evenings Guiness and a trip to the local municipal landfill site for caracara didn't mix well today I can tell you.
