What a way to finish our wonderful trip to Peru. While birding along the river below Machu Picchu we were treated to a Spectacled Bear feeding on the bromeliads in a tree over the river! We watched and enjoyed this beautiful creature for nearly 30 minutes!

    Ah, your life, how it sucks. ; -) Bye bye bromeliad! Yowza!
    That is one heck of a life mammal!! I've only ever seen them in zoos, walking morose figure eights in rocky enclosures.
