Map of Site Report: Loreto, Bolivia

2026-04-16: We got a very early start in our attempt to find the Blue-throated Macaws. The road was extremely muddy, and we even saw a car trapped in the mud. After walking around in the mud looking for the macaws, we eventually found a few. The rain continued to fall, and we got back toward Trinidad before getting trapped by mud.
