Toucan Play That Game.
Had a lie in and breakfast at hotel, then went to a bird park to get photos of toucans. We'd seen two on our tour the other day, but didn't get any photos.
It's supposed to be good luck when a bird poos on you and I've always been a lucky one. So I shouldn't have been surprised when I got shat on in the first enclosure!
We also learnt why you shouldn't feed wildlife. They get used to it and learn that people equal food. One cocky little parrot at this bird park walks along the hand rail next to you and when you're not looking he hops onto your shoulder or head for a quick nibble. We both screamed like girls, which was made even more embarrassing when a young Brazilian girl stroked the parrot when he landed on her.
We got some good photos of toucans, but hummingbirds proved difficult. An hour of patient waiting with camera poised and I got lots of nice photos of half a hummingbird.
I played golf this evening. It's becoming a bit of a quest to play golf in every country. So far I can tick off England, Scotland, France, Morocco, Australia, New Zealand, Tenerife, Namibia, Portugal and now Brazil.
