This was certainly no ordinary tour and for that matter no ordinary group. We were to visit a remote part of Colombia called Mitú, which held many very special birds. Some of these birds were very rare and many difficult to see in the thick, humid, jungle. However, our intrepid and joyful group were up for all the hard walks, sweaty hot days and muddy trails. Mitú is a must visit place for birders with a unique habitat of flooded white sand forest. It delivered many amazing species including 4 species of puffbird, 3 jacamars, lots of antbirds, parrots and other sought-after birds. The local people were always friendly and our wonderful hotel staff could never do enough for us and we felt like we were part of their family after just a few days. Our local guides in Mitú were fantastic birders, full of fun and again when we left, we considered them as great friends. Once again, we were led by Colombia’s top guide Diego Calderon. Many people now visit Colombia but very few ever come close to experience the skills, logistics and smooth running of tours that Diego delivers for our Sunrise Birding groups. Wine and Beer for all!!!! As well as spending time in Mitú we also visited several areas near Bogotá where hummingbirds literally abounded. The many species of hummingbirds, incredible habitats, wonderful people, and a fabulous group made this a very special trip and we would like to thank everyone for making it such fun to lead.
