YOY Ameiva?



This cute little lizard was found in my shower! If you know what it is, please comment.

Same Cory as below

This photo is of the same Bolivian Corydoras catfish we caught in February, however, this one is her out of the water, so you can really see the bright red Dorsal and green body!! Very special.

Rio Parimanu trip is now scheduled for July 7th-14, 2010!!!

This is going to be an incredible adventure. 7 days camping and fish collecting on a largely unknown stretch of this beautiful river in Southern Peru. The last collecting effort there was attempted in 2003 when Lance Peck traveled 3 days upriver to sample it's lower reaches. We intend to spend a total of 7 days there and get as many as FIVE DAYS upriver before turning around and collecting our way back to civilization! This means camping and living in the dense jungle habitat of this remote river-jungle adventure at it's very best! There is still room for one more person. If this sounds interesting to you contact me immediately!

En Peru

I am back in Peru for a trip guiding clients to the Pampas Del Heath region for one week and then up to the cloud forest for a second week. With this El NiƱo weather pattern settling in, the rainfall is pretty heavy this year. I am hopeful to get into some remote areas on this trip if the water levels aren´t too high. It is the best time of year to view Orchids in the cloud forest!!!

We see so many Hummers in our travels throughout Peru, but especially in the Cloud Forest.
