When I arrived at Tequis. last year there was a large colony of Cattle Egrets in Parque La Pila. They disappeared in November and the park was suddenly very quiet. During the last few weeks, a few characters have started to return though..
A breeding colony of 40 pairs of Great Egret and counting.
Hunchback was knocking around..
But so was the Croucher..
Evil Eye was flying around the park. A few pairs of Black-crowned Night Herons have set up shop here, but these lurkers are more difficult to pick out than the Egrets.
Other classic Park birds included Yellow-rumped Warblers, White-winged Doves, Verm Flickers and Great-tailed Grackles.
This confiding Black Phoebe was a bonus.
