Last Views of the Cloud Forest at Monte Verde

Tweet

Our last hours in the Monte Verde cloud forest were spent admiring hummingbirds and epiphytes, plants that thrive in air, not soil.

I liked the epiphytes (a plant, such as an orchid or stag horn fern, that grows on another plant, upon which it depends for mechanical support but not for nutrients).

We visited a hummingbird station.  There's a dark blue one just to the left of the feeder.

A sculpture, I think of Don Quixote, at the hummingbird center.
