Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu
7 Days / 6 Nights
Cusco covers a total area of 70,015.30 Km2. In this beautiful land, it is possible to find colorful Andean valleys, snowy peaks, rivers, waterfalls, the beautiful Andean jungle, Inca and pre-Inca sites, and several Andean communities. These Andean communities are connected by thousands of paths. Some of these paths have been used before the Spaniards arrived to Peru. One of these paths is the one connecting the Andean valley of Mollepata with the Santa Teresa town located in the Andean Jungle. This path is well-known as the Salkantay Trek. After the Inca Trail, the Salkantay Trek is the most beautiful and popular one. Indeed, the magazine National Geographic Adventure rated the Salkantay Trek as one of the best 25 treks all over the world.

The birds de jour last week were a couple of Red-browed Treecreepers and a pair(?) of Rose Robins at the ANBG - bot gardens. I dipped on the Rose Robin but did find a couple of Red-brows amongst the vocal White-throated Treecreepers, way up the back. Red-brows are not common in Canberra, generally sticking to thicker forest with big trees, though who knows how long these have been haunting the back reaches of the gardens? It/they did call a few times which made things easier. I can only swear to one but there seemed to be more and others reported two.
Mine disappeared across the fence into CSIRO just as we were getting used to each other.
No really close or sharp photos, mostly because the light was poor - now I understand what high lattitude people have to cope with most of the time. Also partly because I wasn't getting the focus on the bird most of the time, like this one where it slipped to the branch every time. I must work out how to use spot focus with my camera, which for some reason is more difficult than with the 7D, in fact it's impossible with most lenses.

Endoscopic Forehead lift
Forehead lifts are also known as brow lifts. The forehead is most often lifted by making a hairline incision and removing excess forehead skin. Men with receding hairline do better with an incision in an existing forehead crease. The best way to lift the brow is endoscopically. Small incisions are made above the hairline to give access to the forehead (similar to laparoscopic abdominal surgery). The forehead is loosened, shifted up, and tacked down. Nothing is removed. The incisions are small so healing is very quick.

Golden-browed Chlorophonia - Chlorophonia callophrys - Златобровая хлорофония
Savegre Mountain Lodge, San Gerardo de Dota, Provincia de San José, Costa Rica,11/06/2014
This week we went camping to Kanangra-Boyd National Park, just west of the Blue Mountains National Park, west of Sydney. We camped at Boyd River camping area which was a great little patch of wet sclerophyll forest.
There were the usual birds in there but it was really the Red-browed Treecreepers that made the week. These birds are renowned for their habit of staying high in the canopy of the tallest trees and certainly that was true at Boyd River. However, putting in 18 hours following a group of 3 Red-browed Treecreepers over 4 days gave a few opportunities. Most were wasted in frustrating or unlucky circumstances, but a few yielded photos. Here is one of the better ones.
