pictures part I forgot

Ecological reserve of awesome. A lot of this is just the various plants and birds, although there were two neat statues.

Basically the central park of Buenos Aires












This is called Pampas grass. Thanks Ana! :D

Cortaderia selloana



I think I saw some of these, but they were really fast so I didn´t get pictures.

Didn´t see any flamingos.

I think I saw one of these, again, was too fast for a picture

This bird is super used to humans, and did a modelling session with me.

WAY too fast. There are also blue hummingbirds.

Didn´t see any of these.

Or these.

This is an eagle, who flew over us, landed in a nearby tree, and then flew right over our heads again. Ana got a great picture of it flying.




























Grooming himself.







Top center--a powdery-blue bird, I think one of the hummingbirds. Either way, it was one that I tried to get a picture of earlier, but some people scared it off before I could.





This makes me laugh a bit.



In all the pictures with birds, what happened was that I´d be far away, take a picture or two, edge a bit closer, take more pictures, on and on.

What are these? They look like peas, but they´re on a tree.

This is another bird that was on the cartoon guide, but the picture didn´t turn up. It´s some kind of bird of prey, I´m pretty sure.





This is a neat statue of an angel or winged man with his arms above his head.

I saw this is Puerto Madero, and just had to take a picture. Because, you know, Dead Kennedys. Also, last night I saw an Anonymous sticker stuck on a political ad.
