Otavalo, Ecuador

Otavalo women wear traditional clothing. Many wear dozens of strands of gold bead necklaces called walkas. The beads symbolize corn + are a community status symbol for women. The more they wear, the more important their role.

Back in 2020, right before the pandemic, I went on an Ecuador tour with @scibugs.bsky.social to Otavalo. We took a wrong turn and met this silly llama. Wrong Turn Llama is now my favorite background for my watch. 🥹

Tarantula Hawk scouting out his territory. Female Tarantula Hawks hunt large spiders and are reported to have the most painful sting in the world, but she'd rather use her venom on prey than on defense. Males can't sting at all.

I just love this view from the wood-fire heated hot tub at Casa Mojanda. If you have the opportunity to visit the highlands in Ecuador, it's well worth the effort. #photography #mountains #volcano #ecuador #beautiful

Antpittas are generally thought of as sneaky forest birds, but on one trip high in the Andes this little potato just came wandering out of the scrub. Per Birds of the World, "Among a family of notoriously skulking species, the Tawny Antpitta is the exception."
