Ternate 1st November - Day 16
We stayed in a nice hotel on Ternate, my room had a great view across forest and water to a distant volcano. On the morning of 1st November we went to hide to look for the North Moluccan Pitta (which we had managed only a brief glimpse of during 3 unpleasantly hot and humid prolonged attempts on Halmahera). This time we were much more successful (although it is a different subspecies on Ternate and will probably be split in due course). We then proceeded to the airport for our return to Sulawesi. |
1st November: 23 species seen; 3 new for me
