Day 2 in Amazon Basin - Sandoval Lake 22 May 2015

At dawn, we needed to set out early






After raining all night, it was difficult to climb up the pier with mud all the way.  We then walked for 2 hours to reach Lago Sandoval.  Along the way, tour guides showed us directions for bird search.

I became all wet when arrived the lake side for boarding the boat for lake ride.


Enter Lago Sandoval, a beautiful jungle lake

Many big birds


Various kinds of butterfly







Butterfly on the head of the tortoise

The gorgeous bird I ever seen

We stopped and got on shore for rest


After the lake ride, we took a rest and had our packed lunch




On our way back, we could still meet some other species.

Fish catcher, feet like duck, webbed

My camera got heat up and could no longer take pictures with normal exposure


On our way back, a red butterfly flew near us and landed on our hands one-by-one

There was water weed tangled our boat and we could not make forward.  Luckily we could call for a boat nearby to draw near.  We all boarded on it and the tour guide then had the chance to clear its tangle thus we could only get back with half an hour delay.

Different species could be found in the area


We then walked back for another 2 hours under rain.  As it was slippery, I fell twice on the mud and got myself muddy.  Even though, it is really an enjoyable experience.
