La Ceja, Colombia; Central Andes; 2.300 meters above sea level.
Ortalis columbiana (Colombian Chacalaca / Guacharaca)
Endemic to Colombia, as its name would suggest, and the only chachalaca within its now relatively limited range in the central (Cauca and Magdalena) valleys of the country. It is found in both humid and deciduous forests, but the species’ range and population are both almost certainly declining, and it survives only in pockets.

Aulacorhynchus albivitta
(Southern Emerald toucanet / Tucancito Esmeralda)
La Ceja, Colombia; 2.300 meters above sea level.
Courtship feeding is something of a misnomer. It describes behaviour when a male bird offers food to his mate, but it occurs most frequently when actual courtship is over. Most courtship feeding occurs during egg formation, laying and incubation and can provide a valuable source of nutrients for females.

A very touristic place in Cartagena Colombia Island. Famous for its white sands and crystal clear water.

La Ceja, Antioquia, Colombia; Central Andes; 2.300 meters above sea level.
The Andean squirrel (Sciurus pucheranii) is a tree squirrel endemic to Colombia.
The Andean squirrel is a typical tree squirrel, in its general proportions resembling the Eastern grey squirrel of North America. However, it is much smaller, with a body length of only about 14 centimetres (5.5 in), and a 12 to 16 centimetres (4.7 to 6.3 in) tail. It has soft, silky, reddish-brown fur over most of the body, merging to greyish-yellow on the underparts. The tail fur is darker than that on the body,
It inhabits montane rain forest and cloud forests of the Cordillera Occidental and Cordillera Central of the Colombian Andes, at elevations between 2,000 and 3,300 metres (6,600 and 10,800 ft). As a tree squirrel, it lives among Cecropia trees, palms, and tree ferns. It is believed to be diurnal, but sufficiently little is known about its habits, population, and habitat requirements, that it is currently listed as data deficient by the IUCN.

San Gil is in Northeastern Colombia about 95kM from Bucaramanga. Ideal weather year round and lots of natural beauty make it a vacation area for many Colombians.
