Today, after breakfast, we went for a rainforest walk in an area known as Casual. All geared up with rubber boots, and accompanied by our natural history staff and three local native scouts from a nearby community, we explored a rainforest trail. We had an in-situ introduction to the fascinating ecology of neotropical rainforests. Our naturalists and the well-trained eyes of the local scouts made a great combination, for we observed several rainforest creatures including some frog species and a couple of tarantulas.
We began the afternoon’s activities with kayaking and paddleboarding around Nauta Caño. After that, we went on a skiff ride along the stream. We observed and admired several bird species and monkeys along the way. It was a long but unforgettable day of exploration in the Upper Amazon.
