We made our way along the Madre de Dios to the lowlands of Manu where our first stop was the Blanquillo Macaw lick. The new hide here affords great views over the lick and several hundred Blue-headed Parrots where for me the star bird is the Orange-cheeked Parrot. It wasn't too long before the Red & Green Macaws began to gather in the trees above the lick this morning, eventually dropping down to the banks around 8AM.
