Another belting morning in sunny Mexico; three new species Collared Aracari, Great Crested Flycatcher and Olive Throated Parakeet, plus another cracking White Eyed Vireo.

Back to the birds. New lifer Ovenbird. Then some nice shots of Californian Brown Pelican, Turkey Vulture, and Cinnamon Hummingbird.

Don't do political stuff and this isn't really. These are pictures of a small stretch of coastline in Yucatan, Mexico. It's unremarkable in its significance and I doubt more than a thousand people have ever walked down it. We must do more. #Litter #Mexico

But as you can see it is also beautiful.

Absolutely hammered it down with rain all afternoon, finally stopped and made our way from the bar back to the room. A Great Black Hawk sat in the trees. Fantastic new lifer and completely unexpected.

New lifer; the Gray Catbird, also very happy to have caught the Belted Kingfisher in flight. Difficult to pickup due to the speed of flight.

Another cracking morning birding in Meixco. Buff Bellied Hummingbird, Summer Tanager and a Yellow Rumped Warbler all lifers.

Trialling new camera today. Very happy with the results, old camera was very poor at picking up birds in flight.
