Martín pescador grande (Ringed Kingfisher)
Y Doña Martina perdió el miedo y se acercó bastante a nosotros después de todo; estando sacando fotos a los carpinchos antes de llegar a la casa del guardaparque en Cambyretá esta hembra de Martín pescador se posó en en un poste antes del último puentecito de madera; hubiese dado cualquier cosa para estar del […]

It was already pretty dry around Central […]
