A breathtaking sunset over a majestic volcano, where the last golden rays of light illuminate the scattered clouds. The snow-capped peak fades into darkness, creating a dramatic contrast between warmth and shadow.

Carunculated Caracara. Antisana Ecological Reserve, #Ecuador.

One of my favourite birds, not just for its appearance but for its ecology. It inhabits high puné habitat and is gregarious, with groups often exceeding more than 100 birds.

Named for the caruncles (fleshy outgrowth) on the face, this caracara is widespread through the Andean páramo of Ecuador and Colombia.

Este video es de 2014 tras bajar el Antisana (glaciar ecuatoriano del que depende agua de Quito) y observar su brutal retroceso. Hablé espontáneo, indignado, pidiendo que países contaminantes inviertan en adaptación a desastres en países pobres. Poquísimo ha cambiado en 10 años.

Ecuadorian Hillstar. Antisana Reserve, Ecuador.

It can survive at extremely high altitudes, up 5,200 meters, near the permanent snow line in the Andes Mountains. This makes it one of the highest-dwelling hummingbird species in the world.
