Torres del Paine

Left the port of Punta Arenas with our guide Ava ,our chartered flight to Puerto Natales our 45 minute arrived around 0820hrs.
This place is called Last Hope province,our first stop was Puente Pocarillo.
A few miles down the road Andean Condors sat at rest amongst Caracaras,obviously a carcasse nearby.

Noting more birds on route we stopped for tea and toilets at Cerro Castillo where a Long tailed Meadowlark was singing.
Also of note Upland Goose and Chilean Flicker.Soon we were viewing Guanacos (camelids) .

More stops be it brief for Darwins Rhea and Grey Fox.
Samiento Lake and Amarga  lagoon produced distant Chilean Flamingos
