Field Guides Birding tour with FG guides Marcelo Barreiros and Doug Gochfeld.

Walked the loop trail from the landing strip to two different viewpoints.

At least two Golden Rocket Frogs, and the first Army Ants of the trip, though they didn’t seem to be feeding.

Also probably Straight-billed Hermits chase calling, and a probably Tufted Coquette seen briefly by Peter. Also likely a Bat Falcon flying around well down-river, and a White Bellbird seen by REW (in flight, from our first viewpoint).
