Ace of Spades
Then, just after we closed our mist nets, the sky opened. Tortuguero, where Ed and I are staying right now, gets more than 500cm of rain a year: 200 inches! Two weeks ago they had 24 inches in less than 24 hours; the river overflowed the kitchen table and the overhead powerline got cut by someone driving a boat over it, so communications were out for a while. Hope this rain peters out by morning.
lovely little bird! Looking forward to your CR posts! It is Dec 25, so I am wishing you a very merry (and birdy) Christmas.

Hey Denise – Yeah, the Spadebill was awesome! Hope you had a birdy Christmas, too. It’s been deluging now for five days straight, so we had an extremely wet holiday here as well.
