Our expedition on the puzzling and remarkably bio-diverse Peruvian Upper Amazon continued today with a visit to the Amazon Natural Park. In this private reserve, and a suspension bridge which gave us an eagle view of the surroundings of the middle canopy of the rainforest.
In the afternoon, we explored Nauta Caño by skiff rides or kayaking. This relatively narrow stream is covered with thick vegetation where our naturalists spotted several species of colorful birds from the skiffs like macaws and toucans as well as a three-toed sloths and a couple of squirrel monkey troops. Finally, late in the evening, just after dinner we had a short night walk that allowed us to be immersed in the symphony of the forest sounds in total darkness.
