I was thrilled to see <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crested_Caracara">Crested Caracaras</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harris's_Hawk">Harris Hawks</a> here...both new life birds for me on this trip. Steve will have much better photos. On our drive from whale camp to the eco-retreat, our driver stopped here where there were lots of Caracaras and a couple of Harris Hawks just sitting around on the catcus. It was awesome. It's especially exciting to see new raptor species for the first time. The others in our group were amused and happy for us; I don't think they'd seen me this excited on the trip before. Even the driver seemed happy to be part of our excitement over these birds.
That's it for the first half of our trip. Photos from the second half later!
(geotagging on these baja photos is all approximate!)
